Patient: A lot of the blood vessel, holy.
Is that normal? Like--? Toe Bro: Mhm-hm.
TB: And how many years with this guy?
P: Uh... Probably, like, 5?
It started out looking like the one on my heel.
It was really-- it was small so I didn't really-- I figured it would just go away, right? It never did.
TB: And now it's gotten to the point where it is painful.
P: Yes, it's painful. I mean, the past coupledays has been a little bit better. I guess cause it's just callous, right?
TB: Yeah. P: But it sometimes it hurts a lot and one of my heel hurts.
TB: That one does, huh? P: That one hurts the most.
TB: Okay.
TB: You just take a--[inaudible]
Just take a little clip of what it looks like before all the hard skin, so you can see all that-- that's all callus.
It doesn't really look-- P: It's nasty. TB: --too [inaudible].
You see a few of those black dots? P: Yeah, yeah.
TB: That's just the beginning of the blood supply of the wart.
But mostly it's dead skin.
That's pretty much all it is. We got some fluff there, but yeah.
P: [laughs] TB: You see the black dots, they're just peeking through.
And so, from first glance, this is majority callus so that's why, once we scrape it down, it will be very interesting to see what's actually underneath.
Look at it, a little smaller one.
You can see callus, all the black bots.
I see a little baby one here.
See how it's always like in a-- in a circle?
P: Yeah.
TB: That's how we know that we have a wart.
This one actually is just birthmark.
P: Yeah, that one I don't know what it is.
TB: Just the birthmark.
P: Okay, that's good.
TB: Here's one - you can see the black dots, that's what really differentiates a wart.
This is a mole,
that one there.
There's the one on the heel that's bug-- bugging ya.
P: Yeah. That one's pretty warty.
TB: And because it doesn't have as much callus as this one so I'm just gonna do one last pass and then scrape this one down.
A lot of callus.
P: What makes it start to callus? Because it was never like that for the longest time.
TB: The pressure.
P: Okay..
you know why? Because I, uhm, I went snowboarding pretty much all winter.
TB: Yep.
P: And I went to Whistler, I went to-- TB: How was that?
P: It was sweet, man.
Uhm, I noticed after-- like, it was hurting me while I was riding a lot but I just kind of toughed through it
and then it started to get callus-y, like, afterwards so that probably helped it, I don't know.
TB: So you can see the normal skin. P: Yeah.
TB: And then as we crawl right over, it's just a very thick layer. P: Yeah.
Can you zoom in more or that's it?
TB: No, not really.
P: That's still pretty cool. And gross.
TB: [laughs] Well, we're gonna see when we scrape it down now, look, that's pretty cool.
P: A lot of the blood vessel, holy.
TB: Look at that.
P: Is that normal? Like--? TB: Mhm-hm.
Amazing, kind of. See, that's, like, a tree, branches underneath.
Blood supply.
P: Yeah, that's crazy.
TB: So that's why when we scrape them, they bleed very easily. But yours aren't really bleeding.
So there's another one so you can see, that's the [inaudible] right there.
So it's about the depth of a-- of a smartie.
P: Wow, that's a lot.
TB: [laughs] It is.
It is.
That one there.
P: So-- TB: There's one on your heel.
P: --it'll penetrate that? TB: Yep.
P: That one looks pretty fresh.
TB: That's the one on the heel, that's the one that's most sensitive. You see how it's a little bit more long?
P: It looks-- yeah, it looks really vibrant.
TB: Mhm-hm.
P: And that's gross... but kinda cool.
TB: And you can see the sweat coming in.
P: Ugh... TB: You can see around?
P: Yeah. [laughs] TB: [laughs]
P: Really? Interesting.
TB: That's how-- that's how the sweat glands-- P: What's that one?
TB: This is the big one. P: Oh, man.
TB: Pretty-- pretty crazy.
No one's ever seen-- there's no video like this on YouTube.
P: That's really cool.
TB: It's pretty cool to see that this is what a wart looks like up close.
And they all look very different, yours is very dry though, very hard. Others are very--
P: [inaudible] Probably cause it's very old, right?
TB: Exactly, and that's what makes these ones even harder to treat with-- with topicals.
P: Oh yeah, I wouldn't even consider that.
TB: And so you can see actually-- you can see the water-- you see the sweat coming in.
You see it there?
P: Yeah. TB: It's, like, starting to trickle in.
P: So weird. TB: That's-- that's the wart.
And from far away.
From distance,
and up-close.
Pretty cool.
Well, that's what it looks like.
P: Yeah.
