It is normal to get irritation at the applied area of podowart. In the normal skin (other than wart areas) you can use any moisturizer to lessen the itching. It may help, but some irritation is unavoidable.
Tape a piece of banana peel, inner side down, over the wart before you go to bed. A chemical in the peel can slowly dissolve the wart. Or, try the same with a piece of lemon peel. An oil in the peel seems to discourage warts.

The recommended concentration of podophyllin for genital wart is -podophyllotoxin, 0.5% solution or 0.15% cream. Any solution with concentration of more than this and application to normal surrounding ski other than the warts will cause burn. Use podophyllin I proper concentration to the sites of warts only not normal skin.

Try applying some soothing lotion lactocalamine over the irritated area. Normally also, podophylline is arrogant to the skin as well the warts. So, application only over the warts is important.
