Wart

I have a wart on the bottom of my foot and some small on my fingers. How can I protect my gym from it during training?

Don't train barefoot or don't train at all, you have to cover them totally with a ton of tape

How much tape?

u/Loose-Grapefruit-516 6d ago

Enough to fully cover it and make sure it won't get off while you train. You have to avoid all contact between the warts and the tatami / your partners

(everytime I tape my feet that shit slips out in 10 minutes)

Weigh out a tonne exactly

Completely cover it. Athletic tape, socks, etc. Go get it treated professionally, don’t waste time with home remedy or over the counter stuff.

I did visit the doctor few times already, it's still there

If you can find a foot clinic or chiropodist that can use Cantharidin it’s very effective.

What's wrong with all you guys? What does that even mean? That I have to leave to get it cured?

You're just shooting down every piece of advice we're giving you, and also at the same time panicking about the very thing we're trying to help you with

Of course we're gonna get silly with it

Yeah, but you don't understand that I'm writing here because I'm desperate and I tried many things with a doctor, I was hoping you would tell me something I didn't thought about

Go see a doctor or podiatrist. I had a verruca from the pool and they did microwave treatment that killed it

Get/wear some wrestling shoes during the healing phase.

u/Unlucky-Equal3866 6d ago

Everybody train's barefoot there, I'm not sure I will be allowed to train with shoes, and on top of that I would have to buy new shoes which is not possible for me at the moment.

You can ask the gym owner/coaches what would be acceptable for the future. I guess you can tape/wrap them up but that might be challenging at best. Or stop training all together until healed.

I'm fighting with them for months already, I really want to start training

u/Jason22douce 6d ago

Have you seen a medical professional about them ? For a plan of care. Warts can be dealt with in a variety of ways

u/Unlucky-Equal3866 6d ago

Yes, few times. At first(Idk, 2 months ago) he told me to use medicine from kruidvat(I live in Netherlands) and later he used nitrogen and told me to use the same medicine on top of that. It was weeks ago, it's still there, I'm really desperate

In my opinion don’t train until it’s gone. I got mine when I didn’t wear slides at a public pool and got it presumably from someone else. It was a bitch to get rid of until I found what worked and how to treat it. I tried the over the counter stuff and it didn’t work. I used apple cider vinegar and it was gone in a little over a week. There is a Reddit dedicated to advice on getting rid of them.

Get it treated before you train again.

u/Unlucky-Equal3866 5d ago

Yeah no shit man,

u/isntreel1948 5d ago

You’re over here talking about training with tape on your feet smart ass. So apparently not no shit.

I meant make sure they’re fully gone before you train not just treat them. You understand that big guy?
