What is Verrucas (Plantar Warts)?
Verrucas are caused by the Human Papilloma virus (HPV), which enters the skin through cuts or abrasions. Certain strains of HPV are responsible for verruca formation, particularly on the soles of the feet. Verrucas are contagious and can spread from person to person through direct contact or indirectly through contaminated surfaces.
Several factors increase the risk of contracting the HPV virus and developing verrucas. These include: walking barefoot in public areas, having a weakened immune system, and prolonged moisture or friction on the skin. By addressing these factors and adopting proper hygiene practices, you can minimize the risk of contracting the HPV virus and developing verrucas.
Choose Dr. Ahmad Clinics for advanced non-surgical Aesthetic and Dermatology treatments and experience the difference he can make in your journey to free yourself from verrucas.

I went to Dr Ahmad as I had a very painful verruca which was ruining my life and stopping me doing my job. The Doc removed it surgically under local anaesthetic, whereas my local GP surgery seemed content to spray it ineffectually with nitrogen every fortnight until I died of old age. It’s all healed up and shows no sign of returning. I’ve got my life back! Also, he’s a really funny, nice doctor and a bit of a dude to be honest. I gave him a hug after the operation as it was clearly not the easiest of verruca removals, being very deep. Thanks Doc!
