Plantar warts

[Pauline Ashford]

Can anyone help me with rubrics for plantar warts. In looking at feet, warts
in all the books I have it only lists Spig for warts on toes. Dont really
have m,any other symptoms or anything to go on except the same child is a
Silica constitution and has responded to that well. Has only ever really had
odd colds and a sebaceous cyst on chin. Otherwise a happy and healthy
child - albeit with a fairly anxious Mother. Do I just look at addressing
the Sycotic miasm or are there some more specific remedies. Anyone had any
success at treating them. I have one myself which never causes problems
unless I get totally out of kilter and then goes quiescent again once i have
taken my constitutional remedy but never completely goes away??? Any
thoughts gratefully received. Thanks Pauline

had a case of plantar warts (a lot of them) which vanished within a month, leaving no mark whatsoever. The remedy was Aur-mur, which I don't think is that much in the warts direction but still did the trick. The patient had had the warts for about 7 years, had taken remedies, had some warts burned off, and nothing helped till this.
For what it's worth!

For what it's worth about the miasms of warts, In her book on miasms, Henny
Heudens-Mast describes her interpretation of warts in each of the three
basic miasms as follows:

Psoric warts are small, soft, round, raised or flat, may be pedunculated
(have a stem), are basically flesh colored.

Sycotic warts are larger and darker, with more exuberant, complex shapes.

Syphilitic warts are like plantar warts -- mostly hidden under the surface,
with their real extent invisible to the naked eye.

Interesting!

Certainly remedies of all three miasms occur in various wart rubrics, and a
search for plantar warts in EH turns up remedies from all three miasms.
Based on an analysis of "syphilitic" warts in EH, syphilitic warts are
painful, jagged in appearance, and bleed easily.

Interestingly, also, this rubric from RU, seems not to
be complete:

EXTREMITIES - PHENOMENA - WARTS - general - lower limbs - feet - soles

ant-c. bac. calc. carc. con. corian-s. hell. lach. lyc. med. nat-m. phos.
SEP. sil. sulph. syc. uran-met.

Grandgeorge, in his chapter on Aurum metallicum, makes this statement:
Aurum Sulphur. Interesting in cases of plantar warts (Anacardium, Antimonium
crudum, Aurum sulphur, Causticum, Natrum muriaticum, Sepia, Silicea,
Sulphur, Thuja).

In a search on Plantar warts in EH, other remedies that have cured them
include Syphilinum, Alumina, Arg-nit, Artemisia vulgaris, and Lac-felinum.

In any case, it's not as simple as thinking that all warts automatically
indicate only the sycotic miasm, although this latter is what I was taught
in college. And obviously plantar warts can indicate any miasm, based on
the remedies that have addressed them.
