If it's a seed wart, I've removed a couple with OTC stuff.
Back in the day:
"Use patches of salicylic acid to burn away the infected tissue over time. One method involves applying a drop of the acid to the seed wart, covering with a patch and repeating the process several times a day for several days, weeks or months until the wart(s) and surrounding tissue burn away. You can also purchase premedicated matches that you cut to fit the size of your wart and use as needed until the warts burn away."
Now you can buy Nitrogen freeze kits across the counter.

The Dr Scholl's is fast and easy

Salicyllic acid is aspirin

I wouldn't do this on my daughter, but I've had luck using one of the pencil tip soldering irons. I've used the compound W types OTC and it will work, just takes a while (weeks).

How tough is your daughter?

I had a buddy in high school that would heat the head of a 16 penny nail over the stove and would burn his own warts off. Watched him do it several times. Made me thankful I didn’t have any warts!
