I've got this wart near my left eye, and I was told that it might be wise to consider having it surgically removed with local anesthesia. It's preventative, in case it turns malignant in the future, but right now, it's not causing any trouble. Do you think it's a good idea to go ahead with the surgery? Since it's so close to my eye, is there any risk of nerve damage, or any other complications I should be aware of? Could it come back?
