My son is now 8 years old, we have been fighting warts for about 3 years. Nothing helps. The dermatologist freezes with nitrogen, and soon they come out in other places (never in the place of the old wart). I don't know what to do anymore. Maybe some research? What could be the cause of these relapses?
Recurrences of viral warts are often associated with decreased immunity, general or local. Transmission by local contact is also a common cause of spread. If spread therapy is ineffective, treatment options (cryotherapy, curettage or laser therapy) should be considered.
