Brief Summary   Viral warts are a common dermatological problem caused by humanb Papilloma Virus (HPV). They are pleomorphic affecting a wide variety of sites, principally skin of extremities, genitall skin and mucosa, larynx and oral mucosa. Management of verrucae, primarily over periungual areas and over soles is often frustrating, to the patient and the physician alike. Primary treatment modalities include destructive therapies like topical chemical cautery, cryotherapy, electro-cautery, excision, bleomycin sulphate injection etc, but none of them give guarantee of cure and recurrence is common, apart from scarring associated with these modalities.To overcome these challenges, many immunotherapeutic modalities including PPD, Mw vaccine have been investigated. 
This study is designed as a single centre, prospective, interventional, parallel arm, randomised (1:1), actively controlled trial.  The baseline visit will be scheduled 3 days after screening visit. Every patient will be given intradermal injection of PPD or Mw vaccine according to randomisation every two weekly for a total of six injections or less in case of resolution of warts. The patients will be followed up for 3 months after treatment completion to look for any recurrence. Photographic documentation will be done before the procedure and then periodically. 
At all the follow-ups, the effectiveness and safety parameters will be noted. DLQI will be filled up at baseline, at end of treatment visit and at end of cure visit.
