Sumario:Background: Warts are painless, small growths anywhere in the body (Face, hands, genitals, etc.) caused by human papillomavirus (HPV). Warts, or verrucae, are benign skin growths caused by human papillomavirus (HPV). Conventional treatments include cryotherapy, cauterization, or topical agents, which can be painful and often result in recurrence.

This case study presents the successful management of multiple warts in a young adult through constitutional Homeopathic treatment, highlighting the efficacy and gentle action of the remedy without recurrence.

To date, there has been no recurrence. Conclusion: The case report explores the successful management of warts by using homoeopathic medicine, and the permanent removal of the warts, and no further recurrence. This case report explores the successful homeopathic management of multiple filiform warts in a 41-years-old male patient.
