Intralesional Therapies For Cutaneous Viral Warts: A Comparative Analysis Of Vitamin D3 And Acyclovir

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if injecting acyclovir (an antiviral drug) or vitamin D3 directly into skin warts works to clear them in people aged 12 and older with common, plantar, flat, or periungual (around the nail) warts. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does intralesional acyclovir or vitamin D3 lead to complete clearance of warts by week 8? 2. Which treatment clears warts more effectively? 3. What side effects do participants have with each treatment? Researchers will compare acyclovir injections (Group A) to vitamin D3 injections (Group B), with 20 participants in each group, to see which treatment works better at clearing warts. Participants will: 1. Receive an injection directly into the wart every 2 weeks for up to 4 sessions 2. Have photographs taken of their warts before treatment and at each visit 3. Visit the clinic for checkups where the size and number of warts will be measured 4. Be followed for up to 3 months to check for wart recurrence and side effects

Tirbanibulin for Pediatric Warts

Warts are common, benign skin lesions caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). Treatment is challenging, particularly in the pediatric population, where standard modalities such as cryotherapy and intralesional immunotherapy are poorly tolerated. Existing topical treatments, such as imiquimod and 5-fluorouracil, have low efficacy and require prolonged use. Case reports suggest tirbanibulin ointment may provide an effective and well-tolerated alternative for pediatric warts. This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of tirbanibulin ointment in treating pediatric hand warts.
