Went for a much needed spa afternoon at a local luxury hotel in late February - what a treat, amongst the highlights was an outside hot tub, superbly warm and a real treat as there was snow all around...like being in Scandinavia !
Fast forward a couple of weeks later had some pain on the ball of my foot....and bingo some unhygienic clown with a verruca had infected me :-(.....most of the treatments seem to be chemical (aka painful) until I stumbled (!) on an NHS article about using Duct Tape....yes you read it right, Duct Tape. So off I went followed the instructions, Duct Tape for a week, take it off file down then Emery board the b****r down, leave uncovered for a weekend, then repeat. Triumph tonight - took it off for a bath and the thing had gone ! No pain at all - result. I've looked after my feet all my life and this episode was horrible.
