Hi All
I have got a verruca on my foot , so went and bought some bazuka gel to treat it, only to find in the instructions a warning saying do not use if you are diabetic, are there any other treatments we can use, apart from having it cut out by a podiatrist ?
Martin.
 
I would ignore that warning. They are only legally protecting themselves in situations of diabetic neuropathy where you have lost sensation in your feet. If you don’t have neuropathy then use Bazuka like any other human who had a verruca. It works, though it’s not the neatest treatment. Nobody cuts them out, they are just frozen with liquid nitrogen.
