Yes! Freezing off wart manually can cause scars but if you go to a dermatologist and let the doctor freeze it off it hurts but only for a minute! If you have more than one wart If you freeze One off the other may go away! It does hurt!

Ok I just had a wart on the inside of my big toe frozen of yesterday by a podiatrist. Having it professionally frozen off is stronger and more painful than over the counter Dr. Scholl's freezing kits but more effective for sure!

The actual freezing did hurt, but it was bearable. It felt like a frozen thorn going into your foot. The actual freezing only took about a minute. Afterwards it sort of stings for a while, but the stinging will lessen in about an hour or two, like after you get a paper cut.

The next day my wart turned BLACK (like frostbite) and is flaking off. Now i have this nasty black crater...but it appears much of the wart is gone!

It really wasn't so bad, it was a very short procedure.

Don't trust Duct Tape, i have no idea why that would work, and in the mean time you could push the virus farther into your foot. Get warts off AS SOON AS YOU NOTICE THEM. Warts spread! You must sanitize the insides of your shoes (and anywhere else you walk barefoot...like a shower if you have a foot wart like me) after you remove the wart because you could re-infect yourself!!

Warts are caused by a virus called hpv. When this virus enters the skin it start to multiply and cause a wart to grow. When a wart is frozen, the infected skin cells (and thus the virus) are actually desiccated. The result is that the cells will die and eventually fall off. The key in this treatment is making sure that all infected cells are frozen. This prevents the warts from coming back.
