Abstract: Warts are classified under one sided diseases as external local maladies. They often have individualistic and immunological basis as also familial tendencies. Warts are included under miasm sycosis. Although warts are local diseases, they are treated with internal remedy which is based on comprehensive understanding of the patient. This includes local symptoms, i.e. morphology and location of lesion, mental makeup of the person, and physical characteristics. This is what is called totality of symptoms.

Common remedies include Calcarea carbonica, Causticum, Lachesis, Sulper, Thuja occidentalis, Sepia, Natrum Mur. Homeopathic concept and homeopathic treatment of warts has been described.
