Effective, fast, and pain-minimised wart treatment with SWIFT therapy at The Foot Clinics
If you’ve been struggling with a stubborn wart on the bottom of your foot, you’re not alone. Plantar warts are one of the most common and frustrating foot conditions we see at The Foot Clinics. Caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), they often go misdiagnosed and mistreated for months—sometimes years.
If you’re ready to stop wasting time on home remedies or painful freezing treatments, it’s time to consider SWIFT microwave therapy—now available at our Wagga and Wodonga clinics.
What Is a Plantar Wart? And How Do You Know You Have One?
Plantar warts (also called verrucae) are small, grainy growths that develop on the sole of the foot. They’re caused by a strain of HPV that enters through microscopic breaks in the skin.
Key signs of a plantar wart:
Pain when walking or standing (especially in one spot)
A circular lesion with hard skin around it
Black dots in the centre (clotted blood vessels)
Interruption of the normal skin lines
Feels like “a stone in your shoe”
Warts are often mistaken for corns or calluses, but they are contagious and can spread—especially in shared spaces like gyms, pools, and bathrooms.
Why Over-the-Counter Wart Treatments Often Fail
Most home treatments (like salicylic acid or freezing sprays) only target the surface of the wart. But the virus itself lives deeper within the skin, meaning the wart often returns—and may even spread.
Some drawbacks of traditional treatments:
Long treatment timelines (weeks or months)
Can damage surrounding healthy tissue
Painful recovery or multiple visits
Limited effectiveness for deep or longstanding warts
This is where SWIFT therapy comes in: fast, minimally invasive, and more effective.
