Abstract: Skin growths that results from an infection with the human papillomavirus is known as verruca vulgaris (common warts). These can be smooth, multiple, single, or cauliflower-like, and the usual methods of treatment are external medication application or surgical excision. Verruca vulgaris is a very uncomfortable condition in and of itself. In this case report, a 4-year-old child with warts on his face and hands had low self-esteem and little social interaction. The mother was particularly uncomfortable seeing her child in that state and tried a variety of treatments to resolve the wart issue. However, with homoeopathic treatment, we were able to restore the mother's confidence and the child's discomfort, which enhanced the child's social interaction.
