rabbiyah answered question 12/26/2008 I Have An Extremely Red, Painful, Swollen Plantars Wart And Have Heard That Vitamin E Can Cure Them In A Week. What Do You Think? I have had them. Visit a podiatrist as soon as possible, he/she could help with the pain and swelling. The can also see if you have any underlying causes. This is through examination and treatment.
