    Warts on heal
    My husband has 2 warts beside each other on his heel. What is the best way to get rid of these. He has recently tried Compound W... anything better out there? No idea where they came from - but present for the past few weeks.

    I sympathise with this one I've had a wart on my hand and one on my heal for years and tried so many different things to get rid of it, even the dr couldn't get rid.
    I made my final atempt to get rid last month I bought cuplex gel and with in 5 days the one on my hand disappeared and a week on I'm pretty much rid of the one on my heal.
    I was told by my dr that warts on the heal can be extreamly deep rooted and take a while to get rid of.
    Good luck in your hunt.

    I'm no expert but it may be a plantar wart if so they root from the inside out and are very hard to get rid of. My ex had to go to the doctor and have it cut out. He had to use a very expensive ointment to kill any remaining roots so it wouldn't come back.

    You can try salicylic acid which can be purchased at your local pharmacy.
