When should I see a GP or podiatrist about a wart, verruca or corn?

You should see a GP or podiatrist if a wart, verruca, or corn becomes painful, changes in appearance, or does not improve with home care.

Key points:

  • Seek help for painful or changing warts, verrucas, or corns.

  • Home care isn't effective for all cases.
  • Early intervention can prevent complications.
