Plantar wart
Earlier I had only one small plantar wart in my left big toe .. and I waited that it will get alright by its own...but now it is spreading..I have taken treatment like laser burn off...but it is spreading to other parts of the foot . I don't know what to do now I can't get laser done to my whole feet . I have been given podowart ointment for now but I don't know if it will work or not .
Is there anything else I can do to stop the spread and treat it .
