Has anybody got any advice about how to get rid of one.

I have had one for some time now and cant seem to get rid of it. I have been permanently treating it with bazuca or schol verruca pads, including pummice stones and graters etc but it still wont go.

I dont want it to be cut out as I work most of the time and I am permanently on my feet and I dont fancy not being mobile.

Any suggestions

Freezing treatment
Freezing warts is a popular treatment. Many GPs and practice nurses are skilled at this. Liquid nitrogen is commonly used. The nitrogen is sprayed on or applied to the wart. Liquid nitrogen is very cold and the freezing and thawing destroys the wart tissue. There is also an option to buy a very cold spray (dimethyl-ether/propane spray) from pharmacies. You can apply this yourself (but you should not treat warts on your face with this).
To clear the wart fully it can need up to four treatment sessions. Each treatment session is a couple of weeks or so apart. The chance of clearing a wart with freezing treatment is about the same as acid treatment. However, it tends to be quicker.
Freezing treatment can be painful. Sometimes a small blister develops for a day or so on the nearby skin after treatment. Also, there is a slight risk of scarring the nearby skin or nail, or damaging underlying tissues such as tendons or nerves. It is not suitable for younger children or for people with poor circulation

Check with your GP but I think its available at pharmacists now.....

My daughter had a wart on her knee not so long ago and I went to the chemist and they gave her a brilliant liquid called Antiverrugas Isdin. It also works on verrucas. It comes in a little bottle with a little dropper attatched to the lid. You only need to put one drop on the wart/verruca once a day and it clears within a week. You have to be very careful not to burn the skin around it as it is very strong, so they told us to rub sun cream around it and that stops it burning any other skin it may touch. Good luck!

Yes it is very good stuff and worked almost straight away. You really have to remember to put some sun cream on around the wart/verruca as it does burn the skin.
