\nCurettage:<\/strong> Physically removing the bumps with a small instrument. It’s fast and effective but may require local anesthesia in sensitive areas or young children.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n\nCryotherapy:<\/strong> Freezing the bumps with liquid nitrogen. The cold destroys the infected skin cells. It may cause a burning sensation.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n\nTopical treatments:<\/strong> Medicines such as potassium hydroxide (which dissolves the infected skin), tretinoin, imiquimod, or benzoyl peroxide may be prescribed depending on the case. These should only be used under medical supervision to avoid irritation.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n\nPhotodynamic therapy (PDT):<\/strong> Used in special cases when other treatments don\u2019t work. It involves applying a light-sensitive solution to the bumps, which is then activated with light to destroy infected cells.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nWhile these treatments can be effective, none completely eliminate the virus or guarantee that the bumps won’t return. Some treatments may also leave minor scars or changes in skin color.<\/p>\n
