Sumario:Warts are benign epithelial proliferations caused by Human Papillomavirus (HPV). When located on the face, especially the nose, they may cause significant cosmetic and psychological impact. Conventional management often involves minor surgical or destructive procedures such as cautery or cryotherapy, which may lead to pain, scarring, or recurrence. This case study presents the successful non-surgical management of nasal verruca in a child through individualized homoeopathic medicine Thuja occidentalis 200C, selected on the basis of totality and miasmatic background. The complete resolution of the lesion without invasive intervention demonstrates the potential of homoeopathy to expand its scope into conditions conventionally requiring surgical management, highlighting its holistic and minimally invasive therapeutic value.
