Warts in the neck of a pregnant woman

There is a wart in her neck. It was growing, so alarming to us. It looks like crystals. Please tell us what it is, and how to cure it. Thank you!

You need to be seen by a dermatologist to remove or freeze with liquid nitrogen. OTC cryofreeze is usually not effective, because it's not cold enough.
Sounds like a filiform wart with "crystal-like" tentacles. Don't treat it yourself; it may cause permanent scarring, especially during pregnancy. Go see your dermatologist.
