Are the warts coming back in new places on your legs or exactly where they were? I just want to know if they are the same warts that weren't entirely removed or new warts.
When you get warts, it mean that you have the virus that creates warts present, and are susceptible to it in a way that allows the warts to grow. I used to have warts on my hands and feet, and I could have rubbed them all over my sister and nothing would happen to her, but if I shook hands with a cashier who had a wart, I'd get one. You have to be very careful not to touch your own warts or removed wart material also. If I got a wart on a toe, I'd cover it immeidately, even if I couldn't treat it, so it wouldn't spread to the next toe. Make sure you do the same with yours.
That handled, what is best to eliminate them? After trying every method, including Compund W, duct tape, cutting/shaving/digging (done by a doctor! ONLY a doctor, because you have to remove the root, and it is deep), burning, and freezing, I will tell you that the thing that worked best was freezing. Sometimes you had to do two or even three treatments, but it was most effective. At that time, you had to get it done by a doctor, but I always wished I could just do it myself, since it was so simple. Now you can, and I believe it's also sold by Compund W. They should have directions in the box (if you're young or they're in awkward places, get help from a parent or someone skilled). Do all of the warts at once to avoid the cross-contamination I described.
As long as you are susceptible to them, you will get warts when you are exposed to them, though. So you may get more warts in new areas. Continue treating them or they will spread. But lots of times, people just go through a phase of getting them and eventually grow out of them. This doesn't happen all the time! My father had warts all his life. But I only had them from about age 6 to about age 18. And the better you treat them (promptly, fully), the less they interfere with your life.
Good luck!

I had 2 on my left middle finger. The first one, I got rid of by having my doctor put nitrogen liquid on it. It went away after about 2 weeks. But that was just a common wart. The other one I had on the side of my finger was kind of rougher and had a cauliflower structure. I used the Dr. Scholl's Wart Remover Band-Aids. It was gone with in 2 weeks. Now, there is just a little red dot where the wart used to be, but that is because it is healing.

Duct tape does work but with it being on your legs, it might be hard to do that.
Ask around for some blister beetle. My doctor used it on my 2 oldest boys when they have warts all over their hands.
They came back with my then youngest son and I knew a man who was the 7th son of a 7th son. Supposidly they can 'rub warts away'. He rubbed his thumb over the warts on my son's hand for a few seconds each while my kid had his eyes closed. Then he told us, "when you forget about them, they'll be gone." About a month later, it was back to school time. I grabbed the duct tape and was gonna tape up the warts but they were gone. My son had 22 of them and every one was gone. He's not got them back since.
An old wives trick that I've seen actually work was.. steal a bean. don't matter what kind of bean it is or where you steal it from but steal it. Go outside during a full moon, rub the bean over the warts, turn your back to the moon and throw the bean over your left shoulder and never look for it again. By the next full moon, the wart is gone.
And of course, there's always stump water which I've heard works but I've never seen it.
Good luck

Moles, warts, and epidermis labels are normal skin lesions that grow naturally. Even though they are generally low cancerous, they can be uncomfortable if found on a visible part like the face. Epidermis wounds like moles and warts cause self esteem issues to the sufferers. A person with moles normally turns into a loner since they don't want to be observed in public. They feel embarrassed to be out in public places, therefore depression will normally follow but you can now modify all this with this information from here https://tr.im/iqlOM , Moles, Warts and Skin Tags Removal eBook.
The writer of the eBook, Charles Davidson, is a practitioner in substitute medicine. He is also a professional in skin care, using organic remedies to cure different types of skin conditions.

Beleive it or not, duct tape will get rid of them. Use the good tape, not the cheap stuff. You can get it at "home depot".
It really does work. Leave a piece on the wart for a week. (You can put a new piece on each day if you like.)

i have had issues with warts for a long time, most of them i got rid of when i went to the dermatologist and he burnt them off, another thing is putting duck tape on them, when u do that, they dont go away just then, you have to have the tape on for a long time, then they will go away.
