Verruca treatment after care

Hello

I went to see a chiropodist about my verruca just over two weeks ago (17 days) they removed the hard white skin covering it, and then treated it with S acid and put a large plaster over it which was kept on (and dry) for 4 days.

Since taking the plaster off it has a translucent white coating across the top of the verruca and I can see the verruca underneath. I presume this coating is the S acid, as the edges are starting to peel off.

What Id like to know is, bearing in mind how long it’s been on for…

- Do I just leave the S acid coating on to do it’s job and let it come off naturally ? Or try and peel it off now? (Not sure at what point it stops being effective).

- How long after this kind of treatment does it usually take to kill the verruca ? (it still looks alive) & what would be a reasonable amount of time to give it before going bk for further treatment.

Any help is appreciated- I’ve attached a photo (sorry!).

Thank you
