Verrucas conflicting advice

After sanding my Verrucas down most nights before treating them with Bazuka gel I have started to wonder if the sanding has made them spread, as I have several new ones appeared!  I’m confused, my GP says, “keep sanding them down”, and the treatment says sand them down once a week.  When I tried once a week I found I had a thick layer of Bazuka gel that dried up, wouldn’t come off unless I sanded it down.  The thick layer of gel  appeared to stop the salicylic acid getting to the Verrucas.  I do all the usual soak first ect,, has anyone got any advice?
