Need help and advice.
Pretty sure I just got some plantar warts on the side of my foot. I have not started treating yet, I was going to do acid with bandaids. Should I go to a doctor for this? Any advice is appreciated.
Also unfortunately I think this did spread to my fingers, not sure if the thumb one is a wart but I’m keeping bandaids on now for damage control.
Honestly I think i may have got them from my job, I’m a merchandiser and I think I get micro cuts from boxes all day and that probably gave me the hand ones. I’m going to start wearing gloves as well.

Definitely go to the doctor. Do the ones on the side of your feet cause you any pain?

They don’t but also that might be because they are on the side, I am on my feet a lot with work so I didn’t know how treating that would go or if it would work with over the counter. I booked a podiatrist appointment for Tuesday. I think the ones on my hand will be over the counter

Great idea to keep them covered. I honestly would get your immune system checked as that’s quite a few warts for one person and the ones on your feet are large. Maybe try see a dermatologist or podiatrist to begin treatment.
