Warts

Online skin doctor for warts on the hands, feet and face

Rough bumps on the fingers, a painful spot on the sole that looks like a corn, or small flat bumps on the face that keep spreading. Send photos and the skin doctor confirms whether they are warts and what will clear them.

₹299 for a chat consult.

  • Dr. Rohini K replies within 30 minutes, day or night.
  • Prescription in the chat and on WhatsApp, when one is right
  • 48 hours of follow-up questions included

What to send the doctor

  1. A close photo of each wart in daylight, and one showing how many there are.
  2. How long they have been there, and whether new ones keep appearing.
  3. What you have tried: wart paints, corn caps, home remedies or burning.
  4. Diabetes, or any illness or medicine that lowers immunity.

What the doctor looks for

  • Warts and their look-alikes: corns, calluses, moles and skin tags.
  • Common, sole and flat warts, which are treated differently.
  • Warts on the face, which need gentler treatment.
  • Whether treatment at home is likely to work, or a procedure is quicker.

What the plan usually covers

  • A salicylic acid treatment for home, with how to apply it and protect the skin around it.
  • A prescription cream where one suits the type and the place.
  • How to stop them spreading: no picking, no shaving over them, no sharing towels.
  • When an in-person procedure such as freezing is the faster option.

The doctor decides what is right for you. A prescription is written only when one is appropriate.

When a chat is not enough

See a doctor in person today if you have:
  • A growth that bleeds, changes colour or grows quickly.
  • Warts or sores on the genitals, which need to be examined in person.
  • A painful wart or sore on the foot if you have diabetes.

Questions

Do warts go away on their own?
Many do, often within one to two years, especially in children. Treatment makes them go sooner and stops them spreading.
Are warts contagious?
Yes, mildly. They spread by touch and on wet floors, so the plan includes simple steps to keep them from spreading to other places and to others at home.
Can I cut or burn a wart at home?
No. Cutting, burning or using acid bought for something else can scar the skin or cause an infection. Use only the treatment the doctor writes, the way it is written.
Who will I be speaking to?
Dr. Rohini K (MBBS, IFAAM (Aesthetic Medicine), Fellowship in Cosmetic Dermatology), the skin and hair doctor on PingMeDoc™'s teleconsultation panel. Every skin and hair consult booked through Chamak goes to the skin doctor, day or night, with a reply usually within 30 minutes.
What does it cost?
₹299 for a chat consult. Audio or video from ₹499. The price is shown before you pay and covers the written plan and 48 hours of follow-up questions in the same chat.
Will I get a prescription?
Only if the doctor finds one appropriate. When issued, it is a digital prescription sent in the chat and on WhatsApp, valid at any pharmacy.
Where does the consult happen?
Booking, payment and the chat run on www.pingmedoc.com, our teleconsultation site. You are asked for a phone number and a one-time code at payment, and nothing before that. Chamak and PingMeDoc are the same company.
