Understanding and treating warts and corns

Warts and corns are much more than an aesthetic nuisance: they can quickly become painful, uncomfortable and even restrict your movement. Warts are caused by a virus (human papillomavirus, or HPV), while corns result from repeated rubbing or excessive pressure on an area of the foot.

Since ancient times, a variety of solutions have been developed to combat these discomforts. From medicinal plants to modern treatments, the aim remains the same: to eliminate the wart or horn while respecting the skin. Today, thanks to pharmaceutical innovations, you have access to treatments that are fast, safe and suitable for everyone, right from the comfort of your own home.

Our values? Accessibility, efficacy and respect for the skin. We believe that everyone deserves the comfort of pain-free walking and the confidence to show their hands or feet without embarrassment. That's why we offer a wide choice of solutions that are easy to use at home.

Overview of available solutions for warts and corns

The fight against warts and corns is based on methods adapted to your situation. Here are the main families of treatments available in our category:

• cryotherapy: inspired by medical techniques, this involves freezing the wart or corns to induce their natural fall. It's fast, targeted and painless.
• keratolytic acids (salicylic acid, lactic acid): these substances gradually destroy the wart or horn by eliminating the infected skin layers. The solution is progressive, easy to apply and inexpensive.
• specific dressings: designed to protect the treated area and accelerate healing, certain dressings combine protection with the diffusion of therapeutic active ingredients.
• natural solutions: essential oils of thuja, lemon or tea tree are used to naturally dry and destroy the wart or horn.
• mechanical removal devices: files, special rasps or care kits to mechanically remove horny tissue and prepare the skin for treatment.

Each method has its own advantages, depending on the nature, age and location of the wart or horn. It's up to you to choose what best suits your needs!

Simple tips for preventing and treating warts and corns

It's often said thatan ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Here are a few easy steps you can take:

• dry your feet thoroughly after showering, especially between the toes, to avoid maceration that can lead to infection.
• Wear suitable shoes that don't compress your feet, to limit the formation of corns.
• don't walk barefoot in damp public places (swimming pools, changing rooms, communal showers), as warts are easily caught in these environments.
• avoid scratching or cutting a wart yourself: this can aggravate the infection and spread it.
• boost your immune defenses with a vitamin-rich diet to help your body fight viruses naturally.

By following these simple tips, you're putting all the chances on your side to avoid recurrences and new outbreaks.

Your pharmacist's advice on living better with warts and corns

When it comes to warts and corns, don't let them linger. The older the wart, the deeper its roots in the tissue, making treatment longer and more painful.

Your pharmacist recommends :

• act as soon as it appears: start treatment at the first sign of a wart or horn.
• choose the right method: for example, opt for cryotherapy for a recent wart, or salicylic acid for a more stubborn wart.
• persevere: some treatments take several weeks, so don't be discouraged!
• consult a doctor in case of doubt: if a wart is bleeding or growing rapidly, or if you are diabetic, seek medical advice as soon as possible.

With the help of your pharmacist, you can maximize your chances of a successful, complication-free treatment.
