    How do I get rid of this wart?!

Recently, there has been excitement about the introduction of Pulsed-Dye Laser Therapy as a “magic bullet” to treat common warts, but it appears that the newer therapy offers little advantage over traditional modalities. Although no best treatment has yet to emerge, there is a reasonable approach to treat warts, starting with more conservative, conventional treatments then moving to more expensive, radical measures for recalcitrant lesions.
