View original source ↗Export metadata ↓

Abstract

A method for treating plantar warts is described in which the plantar wart is planed down weekly by very thin, repetitive slices using an Enders single edge razor blade and a prepared solution is applied. The treatment usually takes less than three minutes, is painless, harmless, not incapacitating, acceptable to the patient, and cures at about the same rate as other treatments described in the literature.
