Trust & Pharmacist Advice

Warts and verrucas are caused by a viral infection of the skin and may spread if left untreated. Corns and calluses develop due to repeated pressure or friction, often from footwear or repetitive activity.

Consistent daily treatment is important for successful removal. Before each application, gently remove loose dead skin from the affected area using an emery board or pumice stone where appropriate. Avoid sharing these items with others to reduce the risk of spreading infection.

If the lesion becomes painful, inflamed, bleeds excessively, changes appearance, or fails to improve after several weeks of treatment, seek advice from your GP, podiatrist or pharmacist.
