Not sure which Chinese medicine will help you here, but some foot massage places will be able to help you get rid of it. You'll have to come back several times and they'll leave some kind of medicine on it until you return to get part of it scraped out. There's a foot massage place on Jianshe Lu just past the Yunnan Normal University's West gate on the east side that can do it. Here it may cost you 150 yuan once, plus what they charge for massage.
If you can get your hands on 100% pure tea tree oil (you can buy it on Taobao), you can also take care of it yourself. After shower, scrape out callouses / infected skin as much as you can and apply plenty of tea tree oil on the spot. Make sure you let it dry. Do this as frequently as possible so the virus doesn't get the chance to infect more skin. Not sure if it will work for very deep plantar warts.

Although we have been working hard to fight spam, scams and 'fake' accounts, real people with malicious intentions can still create an account, verify their email address and use parts of the website.

Please refrain from replying to any messages that seem out of the ordinary. The less response these spammers / scammers get, the less likely they are to try again.
@TICexpats: If you would like to review a restaurant that is not in our listings you are welcome to send us the information through the contact form so we can add it to the appropriate category/categories, enabling you to write your review in the appropriate place.
@Geezer: Those reviews were removed a few days ago, for obvious reasons.
Ordering any list of items (including ordering listings by rating) is already included in our new concept design / interaction design.
Also, we want to introduce pages for adding listings and events, which will be moderated and only set live on approval – this to make sure all entries are valid and entered in the right format.
@Michael We'll design a map after the holidays. Currently the officially released schematic maps are all low-res, even on the official website of Kunming Metro. This was the best map available so far.
Forum search has been added to the global search as well as of today. We try to optimize the results to be as relevant as possible.

Xizhou is one of Dali's gems, only about 18 kilometers north along the lake from Dali Old Town. The old town still feels authentic and is like a living gallery, showcasing the impressive artistry and culture of the Bai people.
It makes for a great stop on the way up to Shaxi Old Town too, which is perhaps my favourite place in Dali prefecture.
I've been to the Stone Forest many times and although when entering the park it may feel a bit like a tourist trap, there's areas in the back that, even during high season, are usually extremely quiet and can be explored without being surrounded by the crowds.
The landscape is unique and different from many nearly areas that also feature karst rock formations. Definitely worth a visit for those who haven't been yet.
Five stars for focussing on healthy foods. Homemade live sauerkraut, lots of dishes with quinoa, chia seeds, avocado, and tons of other superfoods mixed to create a tasty and healthy cuisine. I hope this is only the beginning of a new wave of alternative food options in the city.
One of the better options in Lijiang for a western meal. Had a set menu through meituan for only 99 yuan that included a very decent steak and onion soup. The environment is spacious and nicely designed with the restaurant being conveniently located in between the InterContinental and LUX hotel inside of the old town. We were not drinking, but they looked like having an impressive wine collection. 5 stars if they improve on speed and service level.
Sofitel is easily one of Kunming's top hotels now, featuring one of the best locations, in between the city center and the popular Dianchi Lake area.
The views from any of its rooms, as well as the buffet restaurant are quite stunning, offering previously unseen panoramas over the whole of Kunming.
There's a bar on the 50th floor, although currently it still has some work to do to be able to compare itself with similar 'skybars' in Shanghai or Beijing.

Posted by@Matt: yeah, quite the game changer for a place like Lincang!
