🦶 What Is a Verruca?
(Also known as a plantar wart)
A verruca is a common viral skin infection that appears on the sole of the foot. It’s caused by the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), which infects the outer layer of skin.

👣 What Does It Look Like?
* A small, rough growth on the bottom of the foot
* May have tiny black dots (these are small blood vessels)
* Sometimes painful when walking or standing
* Often surrounded by hard skin or callus
Verrucae can appear singly or in clusters (known as mosaic verrucae).

💊 Do Verrucae Go Away on Their Own?
Some verrucae resolve naturally as your immune system fights off the virus, but this can take months or even years. If a verruca is painful, spreading, or persistent, professional treatment can help.

🩺 Treatment Options at Pocklington Podiatry
We offer a range of evidence-based treatments, including:
* Swift Microwave Therapy – targets the virus by stimulating your immune system
* Alternative Acid treatments and sharp debridement
Your podiatrist will assess your verruca and recommend the most suitable treatment for your needs.

✅ Preventing Verrucae
* Avoid walking barefoot in public areas
* Keep feet clean and dry
* Don’t pick or scratch verrucae
* Cover them with a plaster or verruca sock when swimming

We are so excited to get our hands on the Swift Pro in our Podiatry clinic 👏🏻

Swift is a wart treatment with a difference. Unlike other wart treatments, Swift uses microwave energy, which is delivered through a special probe applied to the skin, to treat the affected tissue. As Swift does not break the surface of the skin, there is no need for bandages or dressing, leaving you to carry on your day as normal.

Book your Swift appointment today!

Trust Pocklington Podiatry to finally eradicate your Veruccas & warts with our proven Swift microwave treatments. Swift gets to the cause of your wart problems (HPV virus) and eliminates the actual virus.

If you have any question please do not hesitate to contact us 😀

My 5 a day daily reminders of what I enjoy working as a self-employed Podiatrist 👏🏻

1) Patient satisfaction = This is one of the main things I love about my job. It is a daily reminder that I may have helped someone that day.

2) Communication = I get to speak and even learn from all my patients. From local events I should visit to their own personal backgrounds… they all teach me a thing or two!

3) Rewarding = Knowing I have made an impact. whether that’s relieving some pain, putting a treatment plan together or educating a patient on a particular condition.

4) Variety = I love the busyness and variety Podiatry can offer. A Typical day may start with a MSK assessment, designing some orthotics to treating a painful ingrown toenail or a stubborn 10+ Year Verucca!

5) Learning = As medicine and treatments are always advancing, so are my skills. I am always enrolling on courses to enhance my treatment approaches. As well as enjoying networking at local & national conferences my needs are constantly met with learning & education.
