Have you tried padding, orthotic management, non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs and physical therapy. Intralesional injection therapy with corticosteroids has some merit in the initial stages of the disease but as the disease accelerates, its success rate is doubtful.

I feel for you, I have Planter Faciitis and it is miserable.
 
My foot doctor recommended this, it is available over the counter--Mediplast, you cut the patches to fit over the wart and then cut a piece of moleskin to fit over for a cushion. Change every two days. May take 8-10 weeks, but it does work.

We also discussed using duct tape as was suggested on another thread here. Since I needed them to be gone so I could get back to work I chose the above.

Apparently the duct tape works by your body trying to get rid of the adhesive and in the process gets rid of the wart. A coworker of mine did it with a wart on his hand and it worked.

take care,
Nan
