Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic.
The " warts" around your neck could be skin tags or acrochordons. Even if they are true viral warts, the best treatment would be cauterisation. Dicaris alone will not be sufficient enough. It is not a steroid but an immunomodulator which will build IP the body' s resistance against the virus.
Hope this helps you.
Take care.
