I have a small wart on one finger, i have had it for years, so any one have a magic cure?
Seriously, I have used the product "Compound W" before, and it did work. It took about two weeks, so I'm not too sure if it was psychosomatic or not. It sort of peeled it off bit by bit and ultimately left a hole in my skin, but all is well now; I just use a different finger when I play piano.
It worked for me like that too. The wart turned bright white and crusty, and pieces of it just fell off until it was gone.
Have you let a doc look at it? Doctors have magical lasers and potions and things that might be able to help you.
I cut mine out with a Victorionox 3-blade knife with a really new sharp main blade. There was a little thin white thread at the bottom of the hole that really caught my attention when I removed it. The wart is still gone, though.for crying out loud what has happened to you MIH, have you been in the biscuit barrel a few to many times :surprised
And yes i have seen a doctor, he was as much use as a chocolate
fire guard, he said it is no use cutting it out as it will only come
back.
Over-the-counter medications can remove warts. These are applied to the wart every day for several weeks. DO NOT use these medications on your face or genitals. It helps to file the wart down when damp (for example, after a bath or shower) before applying these medications.
Stronger (prescription) medications may be required for removal of persistent warts. Surgical removal or removal by freezing (cryotherapy), burning (electrocautery), or laser treatment may be needed.
DO NOT attempt to remove a wart yourself by burning, cutting, tearing, picking.....
Yes! That's exactly what happened.for crying out loud what has happened to you MIH, have you been in the biscuit barrel a few to many times :surprised

I haven't looked to see what the exact formulation is, but native Americans used willow bark as a pain reliever.Here's some botanical trivia, what common plant(s) contain the methyl-ester of salicylic acid?![]()
