Warts reconsidered: A case series exploring non-surgical homoeopathic intervention

Abstract

Warts, caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, are a prevalent skin condition that can be both persistent and resistant to standard treatments. Although they are commonly managed through local destructive methods, these approaches frequently lead to recurrence and sometimes adverse effects. Homoeopathic philosophy, the origin of warts is not viewed merely as a local skin eruption caused by a virus, but rather as a manifestation of internal imbalance—particularly related to the miasmatic background and the individual's susceptibility. Homoeopathy, which is an individualized and systemic holistic therapeutic method, provides an alternative by addressing the underlying root predisposition of the patient. Here we are presenting an observational series of three clinically verified cases of warts, each differing in location, duration, morphology, and patient constitution. All patients underwent a complete homoeopathic case analysis, with individualized remedy selection based on the totality of symptoms. Outcomes were evaluated using clinical photographs, patient-reported symptom improvement, and follow-up assessments. Within a few weeks of initiating treatment, all three cases achieved complete resolution of lesions, with no recurrences observed during follow-up periods.
