Help- I cannot walk! Plantar wart w/acv treatment

Posted , 3 users are following.

So I have started the acv 2 days ago and now I cannot even take a step with my heel touching the floor. Going to Europe next Saturday- will I be better by then or should I stop this treatment? It does not hurt when I put it on, but the area itself is swollen!

    Have you been trying to dig out the wart? Sounds like you may have an infection there. Are you sure its a wart?

    Hi jojo57647. Sorry with my late reply. I should get to a clinic to have it checked out in case it is an infection but the area sounds badly inflamed. The doctor might prescribe some soothing anti inflammatory/ antiseptic cream to soothe the area asap or else it's going to spoil your Europe visit, if you're hobbling about. Certainly stop the ACV application as it's obviously irritating the area and I would keep it covered with a padded plaster. Good luck.
