Is there any treatment for warts apart from cauterizing them ? I get frequent warts on my face and because it interferes with shaving, I need to resort to cauterization every two or three months.

Frankly speaking, there is no such harmful method as cauterization for the removal of warts. Removal of warts by any type of physical method do not treat them permanently, this only causes suppression of this tendency and will only result in more and more arising of warts. Only way to cure of warts is that, so not cut them and let them detach by themselves, by giving oral medicine, as this is the tendency present inside the body. There should be no external application to be applied.
