I had a gnarly plantars wart in college and yea its from a cousin of the HPV virus from what I've heard. I have the vaccine and still got one. You need salicylic acid and tape. Put the acid on it every morning then tape over. It'll fall off eventually. My planters wart was gnarly, had a nice little hole in my heel for a while before it fully healed. God I loved college. Speaking of which, I went to UNCW, must be running rampant down there lol

I don't know about the warts, but I think I'd hit it with little hesitation. I'm still in a really long dry spell, which I hope to snap very soon.
