Conditions

  • Common Wart
  • Plantar Wart

Interventions

DRUG

Measles-Mumps-Rubella Vaccine

MMR vaccine will be injected 0.5 ml into the largest wart at 2-week intervals until complete clearance was achieved or for a maximum of 3 treatments. Response to treatment will be evaluated 1 month after the last session by decrease in the size of warts, decrease in the number of warts and photographic comparison. The clinical response was graded into complete (complete cure), partial (if there was a decrease in the size and\\or a decrease in the total number of warts), and no response (no change in size and number of warts).

PROCEDURE

cryotherapy

patients received cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen once every 2 weeks until complete clearance or for a maximum of 3 sessions.Response to treatment will be evaluated 1 month after the last session by decrease in the size of warts, decrease in the number of warts and photographic comparison. The clinical response was graded into complete (complete cure), partial (if there was a decrease in the size and\\or a decrease in the total number of warts), and no response (no change in size and number of warts).
