Understanding plantar warts, and how we help in Nashville.
Looking for help with plantar warts in Nashville? Our Nashville clinic at 300 20th Avenue North, Suite 103 offers exams, treatment, and follow up close to home.
Plantar warts are small growths on the bottom of the foot caused by a virus. The virus enters through tiny breaks in the skin. Pressure from walking can push the wart inward, so it may look flat.
Children, teens, and people who use shared pools or locker rooms often get them. They can be tender when you walk or stand. Treating them early can stop them from spreading or growing larger.

Diagnosis and care
How we treat plantar warts in Nashville.
Step 1 · Diagnosis
We look closely at the spot and gently trim the top layer to see the tiny dark dots that mark a wart. This helps us tell it apart from a callus or corn. Imaging is not usually needed, but we may use it if something looks unusual.
Step 2 · Treatment
Warts can be stubborn, so we often use a step by step plan. This may include medicated treatments applied in the office, gentle removal of thick skin, and protective padding. Some warts need minor in-office procedures. Keep the area clean and dry, wear sandals in public wet areas, and do not share towels or shoes.
Surgery is rarely needed. A minor in-office procedure may be used for warts that do not respond to other care.
