buy verruca treatment and file your verrucas and warts every night. Use Manuka Honey- It worked for me. I had massive verrucas and I went to a chiropodist and she recommended Manuka Honey. Use a cotton wool bud to dab some Manuka Honey onto your verruca and put a plaster over it. Do this every night until the verruca is gone. For me, the verruca was gone in 2 days.
