Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I want to improve and make my feet normal. Please check my picture and give me a solution.
Hi,
I am glad you chose icliniq for your medical-related queries.
I understand your concern and will try to help you with it.
You have plantar warts caused by the human papillomavirus (attachment removed to protect patient identity). There are a lot of treatments available, for some of them you need to visit the local dermatologist, and others can be done at home. Start following medications. Kindly consult your doctor to discuss the suggestion and take the treatment with consent.
1. Capsule Zincaps 100 mg (Zinc sulfate) three times a day after meals.
2. Duofilm gel (Lactic acid and Salicylic acid) apply once at night for six weeks. It takes time to get improvement, use at least for six weeks.
Thank you for consulting me.
You can always reach me at icliniq.com.
Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
Thank you for the reply.
Some of my friends said it is called corn. Please explain.
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
I read and understand your concern.
These are plantar warts, not corn. Corn is thick skin due to constant friction, and a virus causes warts. I do not see any reason that others can diagnose a skin disease better than a dermatologist. I am sorry, but there is nothing to explain, we recognize something as common as plantar wart by looking at it.
Looking forward to your response in order to help you.
Thank you.
