The Benefits of Professional Verrucae Treatments in Cardiff and Pontypridd

Verrucae (plantar warts) can be stubborn, painful, and frustrating to treat on your own. At Toetal Footcare, we offer a range of effective verrucae treatments, including the state-of-the-art Swift microwave therapy, with an 85% success rate. In this post, we’ll explore why professional treatment is the best option and what makes our approach different.

What Are Verrucae and Why Are They So Persistent?

Verrucae are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) and often appear on the soles of the feet. They can remain undetected by the body’s immune system, making them difficult to treat with over-the-counter remedies.

Treatment Options at Toetal Footcare

Chemical Treatments: Effective for mild cases, these require regular applications every 3-4 weeks.
Swift Microwave Therapy: A fast, modern treatment with an 85% success rate over six months. This non-invasive option works by stimulating your body’s immune response to target the verruca virus.
Advice on Home Care: We’ll guide you on how to prevent the spread of verrucae and care for your feet during treatment.

Why Choose Professional Treatment?

While some verrucae resolve naturally, others can persist for years. Professional treatment ensures faster, more reliable results while minimising pain and discomfort.

by Toetal Footcare • 3 March 2024

The plantar fascia is a strong weblike ligament which is attached to the heel bone and runs along the base of the foot to the heads of the five metatarsal bones. It supports the arch of the foot and also acts as a shock-absorber. Patients often report a stabbing sensation especially when they take their first steps in the morning.
