A few months ago, I had a plantar wart which lasted for about 1.5 - 2 months. I did not understand what it was until I asked someone on the internet about it.
It was walking like I was a gimp because of it. I wonder how would a marathon runner feel like if they had something like that on their plant.
The way I got rid of it was with vinegar and a substance from the pharmacy. But I think that the most important aspect is to keep it well covered with much tape so that no air gets to it and that it will get to sweat. If the wart sweats then it slowly becomes softer and softer and then it will eventually fall off.
Some people advised me to go to the doctor to get rid of this but I did not listen to them. I don't think that this is such a serious problem to go to the doctor because of it. But if someone feels the need to go to the doctor to get rid of a plantar wart then that is their choice and I don't mind that.
Ever experienced a plantar wart?

Most times the warts have to be burnt off, or frozen off. I think you had a different kind of wart. Eventually it will keep coming bacl.

I think a natural way to get rid of something minor should be tried first and then go to a doctor if it doesn't help. I was brought up in a family that my grandmother was our doctor. We only went to a professional if we needed an antibiotic or something serious like tonsils or the measles.
