Are Pesky Plantar Warts Giving you a Tough Go?
Dealing with plantar warts can be a real pain in the “feet”! Plantar warts appearing on the soles of your feet can range in size from small lesions to larger clusters.
These unsightly warts, caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), are a common foot condition that often inhibit activities and cause a lot of discomfort. Although some warts can resolve over time, Dr. Victoria Melhuish board-certified podiatrist with Sierra Foot & Ankle, offers these key indicators for when to seek professional care.
● Persistent and Recurrent warts. Over the counter and home remedies aren’t working for you, or the pesky warts keep coming back.
● Warts are Growing or Spreading to other areas of the foot?
● Difficulty Walking or Standing. Warts interfere with your mobility, gait, or daily activities?
● Diabetic an Individual with Circulatory Issues.
● Uncertain (self-Diagnosed) whether lesion is a plantar wart or something else.
Say Goodbye to those Stubborn Warts because Sierra Foot & Ankle Has the Cure! Sierra Foot & Ankle an advanced FDA approved medical treatment for plantar warts that prevents them from coming back in the future. Swift Microwave Therapy NON-surgical, NO-needle treatment that will end your battle with warts. Unlike low-tech and home-based options that leave you feeling like you’ve run a marathon barefoot, Swift Therapy uses microwave energy, delivered through a special probe applied to the skin to treat the wart. This microwave energy triggers your body's natural immune response which essentially uncloaks the HPV Virus.
Here a few reasons why Swift Microwave Therapy is so great:
• Success rate for this treatment is around 85%, which is higher than any other traditional wart treatment. It is effective.
• The warts are less likely to come back, since Swift treats the infection, rather than just removing the wart.
• You might feel a mild, hot “stinging” sensation for 2-3 seconds during application of the treatment, but this goes away almost immediately afterward. Less pain, and NO post-procedural pain.
• No anesthetic or needles required. NO skin breakage.
• No aftercare or downtime. Swift attacks the infection from the inside out, rather than the outside in. NO need for bandages, just go back to your normal day.
• It’s convenient. Treatment sessions are short. The wart is lightly debrided (this is painless) and then apply the microwave therapy. Typically, 2-3 treatment sessions are required to eradicate the wart, spaced out over 2-4 weeks.
• It’s safe. Microwaves have been used therapeutically for over three decades, and Swift Microwave Therapy has passed years of clinical testing and is FDA approved.
