Diabetic with persistant warts?

My sister is a diabetic and since she got her first wart from camp (about 4 years ago) she cannot seem to get rid of them. She has been to a foot doctor and they have tried freezing it and lasering it but nothing seems to help for very long. Being a diabetic prevents her from getting it cut out (hard time healing). If she is lucky it might go away for a month then its right back again. Any suggestions??

Find a doctor that will inject them with Bleomycin. I had the most horrible warts for years until I was treated with this. The treatments can be painful, but it is incredible with the speed that it works. My largest wart was gone in 3 treatments and has not returned for over three years. I had tried Cutting out, Freezing, Laser, and even Holistic Medicine. Bleo for the win.

Side note- I used to take Vioxx, which is an anti-inflammatory, that helped with the pain, but is obviously no longer on the market. Ask the Dr if there are any similar medicines on the market as the first day or two after treatment the site can be very sensitive-- I even used to premedicate.

Good Luck!! I know how stubborn these things can be.
