Hi to all those Podiatrists who sometimes (maybe always) surgically remove plantar warts,
Members do not see these Ads. Sign Up.
I was interested in knowing what the standard care is following this procedure. Once the Pt's wart has been removed and it is in the healing stage, a lot of the time callus and dry blood/necrotic tissue form over the post-op site (in most Pt's the dry blood/necrotic tissue fills the wound site) even 5 weeks post-op.
Is it better to leave the site alone and allow it to heal and get rid of the necrotic tissue on its own?
Or is it prudent to debride the site and clear it of necrotic tissue/callus to aid with the healing process?
Cheers to all in advance,
FD
