You can apply ointment (aldara) but can see the result gradually or the laser which is relatively fast and you can also go for a cryotherapy.God bless!

PLANTAR WARTS ARE HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
I work in surgery and recommend you have a podiatrist professionally remove them. Attempting yourself could lead to further infection, spreading, or even a staph infection.
In the meantime, do not go without shoes or heavy socks where others may walk barefoot. And yes, this would include the shower; so disinfect the shower floor after using. And also locker rooms where multiple people are changing clothes...like their shoes/socks.

"Treatment
Over-the-counter medications contain chemicals that destroy skin cells (e.g., acid) and may damage healthy tissue surrounding the wart. Self-treatment for plantar warts using an over-the-counter preparation is NOT RECOMMENDED" - but this from a doctor (ie, someone interested in you paying him or her to remove the wart), so take it with a grain of salt

Actually if you (I know this sounds gross) pull out the "seeds" in the middle of the wart it will disappear. That is if it's a planter's wart. Also I've heard that if you rub an ordinary nickel on it for a few days it will go away. Hope this helped :)

I had one in junior high, and let it go. It spread so bad that my whole ball of my foot from my toes and down the side had to be burned. It took several sessions before the Dr got it all. Forget what that one said about the nerves and all, your foot will recover, since you walk on it and use it all the time, it will rejuvenate and become normal. You couldn't even tell a few months after that anything was ever done to my foot.

buy a wart cream in the store designated for planters warts or go to the dr and they will burn them off for you with liquid nitrogen.
