Warts & Shoes
I have been treating my plantar warts with Freeze Off and it has been working.
I have gotten rid of about 5 of them with 7 more to go.
What should I do as far as my shoes & sandles?
Can I continue wearing them?
Do I need to wash them?
Should I get rid of them because they can ‘reinfect’ me?
Thanks, Stacie

Theoretically there would be viral particles in your shoes. However, as I point out to my patients, at what point do you think you have ceased shedding wart particles? Whatif you have brand new shoes or shoes that cost alot?As far as that is concerned-what about bathtubs, carpet, beds? You see what a mess this can become? I wish I had a scientific answer as I get asked this all the time. I know of no reliable way to determine the correct answer.
Sorry
