Warts are caused by a common virus and most go away on their own over months to a couple of years. Recommended supportive care with an emphasis on soaking the wart, filing down the dead skin, and applying the salicylic acid nightly; stop for a few days if the skin becomes painful or raw. Treatment often takes several weeks. Avoid picking at warts to keep them from spreading. Return precautions given including signs of infection, warts that keep spreading, new symptoms, prolonged symptoms, worsening symptoms, and other concerns.
