What Is A Wart?

Warts are a common skin condition most often seen on the hands, fingers, and around the nails, but they can also appear elsewhere on the body. They typically look like little, fleshy peas, but they may vary in size. Warts are brought on by the human papillomavirus (HPV). Though warts are harmless for the most part, they can be irritating and unsightly. Over-the-counter wart removal products are usually not enough, which is why board-certified dermatologist Dr. Calvin Williams provides wart removal at his office in Bedford, TX. When you want a wart treated or removed, schedule an appointment at Essential Dermatology Group.

What Are Treatment Options for Wart Removal?

Even after your first treatment, warts can reoccur so it is necessary to get the right treatment to minimize future outbreaks. Freezing a wart with cryotherapy is an effective treatment that involves Dr. Williams applying liquid nitrogen to the wart. A blister will form around it and the frozen cells will fall off in a week. Another option is using cantharidin, a chemical that is applied to the skin to create a blister around the wart and should cause little to no discomfort. Curetting (scraping) or excising (cutting) the wart are methods that may also be utilized. Chemical peels, topical creams, laser treatments, immunotherapy, or bleomycin injections are also used for treatment if the wart is hard to remove.

Come see Dr. Williams!   I stress about skin checks every year as I have lots of moles and freckles.  It makes me crazy when a dermatologist does a quick once over and says all good.  Dr.Williams took his time and answered all my questions.   Lovely staff and very easy location to get to in the metroplex.

I found Dr. Williams online and really did not know what to expect. I had moles in embarrassing places and wondered how comfortable I would feel showing him as well as my embarrassing dark spots. Not only did he make me feel comfortable right away but always had his nurse in there with him. I would totally recommend him in his friendly staff to anyone who is experiencing skin problems.

How Do I Recognize A Wart?

Symptoms of warts are lumps that are tender, grainy on top, and feel fleshy. The area around the wart may feel rough. Plantar warts grow on the soles of the feet. Also called foot warts, they appear as brown or flesh-colored lumps that are speckled with small, black spots. Flat warts are smaller and smoother in comparison to other types. Flat warts may develop anywhere, but they're most common on the face and legs.
