" Hi Camy...Ive used Podofilox, but in the liquid form, as an acid treatment to removed the warts. Im not sure if yours is in the liquid form or the gel form? I know when I used it irrtiated my skin and made it feel itchy and swollen. Everyone reacts differently. My advice is don't apply it to areas not required. Because I did this and it not only irritated my skin but it caused it to split like a cut. Oooh it hurt like hell. In a nutshell it not extremely painful but just irritating. And remember everyone reacts differently. Let me know if I can be of more help.
xx Elena "
