How to treat plantar warts on skin?

Hello doctor,

I had something like plantar warts on my skin. The warts are not there now, but the skin has become dry and swells up in a white color when soaked in water for a long time. Please help.

Thank you.

Are the lesions hard, thick, rough to feel or hyperkeratosis?

Answer 3

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

It is eczematous dermatitis. Use Topisal (Clobetasol propionate and Salicylic acid) 3 percent ointment at night for 15 days, Fucidin (Fusidic acid) cream at evening for 10 days, Moisturex soft cream twice daily for 15 days, and tablet Levocetirizine 5 mg at night for 10 days. Maintain proper hand hygiene. Avoid excess contact with water. Avoid scratching or rubbing lesions, as it may cause secondary bacterial infection.

I hope this helps you.

Thank you.
