A Large Wart On The Cuticle Of The Nail. Freeze Off OTC Failed. Suggestions?

I have a large wart on the cuticle of my nail, I've had it for over a year and now I am starting to get them on the other finger next to do. Freeze off OTC stuff hasn't worked.. I've even tried using dandelions. It is extremely embarrassing and was wondering if it could mean other health problems. I've recently also had a miscarriage and a very painful abscess that was on my inner pelvic bone. This is why I'm concerned, could these things be connected? Also, any tips on how to get rid of this damn wart woukd be great, this is the only one I've ever had and it keeps me from doing things I used to love, like getting my nails done.

Hello,
Welcome to health care magic.
I do not think there is any connection between your miscarriage, abscess and our wart.
Warts are a type of viral infection, which could spread if left untreated.
Please consult your doctor . You could get a prescription for a salicylic acid paint to be applied locally, could do cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen or even get it cauterised.
Hope this helped.
Take care.
