You can still help her face tomorrow with less pain. A warm foot soak, gentle drying, and careful use of child-safe salicylic acid or cushioning pads can ease each step. Padding and taping around the wart, soft liners in her shoes, and looser tights can spare it from being rubbed raw. Skip any cutting, picking, or “burning it off” at home; if there’s swelling, pus, or she can’t bear weight, call a doctor urgently. Whatever happens onstage, she’ll remember most how fiercely you stood in her corner when it hurt to even stand.
My daughter is limping from this hard rough spot with black dots on her sole. She has a dance recital tomorrow and is crying in pain. Need a fast fix!
