AskHello doctor. My warts are getting bigger and bigger and have lots of black dots. Doctor, should I use salicylic acid to treat it? I hope you can give me some advice, thank you very much.

Hello,
For warts that are less than 0.5 cm in size, you can use a solution of salicylic acid and lactic acid (duofilm, collomack) to destroy the HPV virus that causes warts, as well as shedding of keratinocytes. Once applied to the skin, the drug dries quickly and leaves a white layer. These medications can be used at home, but it takes weeks for the acne to completely disappear.
You can refer to more detailed information here: Treat warts properly, avoid spreading.
