Depending how you have them removed, it can be painful. My son had one and the doctor had a prescription made for him (liquid) that I had to apply twice a day. It worked in about 10 days and the wart never came back. Years ago, the practice of burning warts off was quite painful. I think now you can have them 'frozen' off.

There are numerous ways to get rid of warts. A plantar wart may be frozen off or cut out, it depends on the physician. Yes, go see a physician so they can help you and then your feet won't hurt

luckily it shouldn't hurt. Usuualy removed by freezing it. You might feel a bit of pain then, but it goes away quickly. Make sure you keep the damaged area clean though.
Good luck

Nah it doesnt hurt. I had one a few yrs back that hurt like crap. It was on the side of my foot and i went to the doc. to have it removed...no pain whatsoever, infact when he did it i didnt even know he had lol... Good luck with your decision!

Its usually removed via cauterization or burning. Topical anesthesia will be applied so you won't feel a thing.

NO. You can do it yourself. They frezze it than remove it.
