My name is Laura and I'm 28 years old. I live in Illinois and work as a licensed veterinary technician. I am a runner, bookworm and obviously, an animal lover.I've been on this site since '05. I take hiatuses, but I'm never gone for good. I enjoy giving advice and I've made such lovely friends on this site that I couldn't imagine giving it up!

advice
Is there a way to easily, less painfully remove a Plantar wart from my skin and not have to pay a small fortune to accomplish that?
Please help me if you can or if you know somebody who could help me fix this problem I have asked them to advise me.
Thank you!
Duct Tape. I had 4 plantar warts on my feet a few summers ago and used every over the counter treatment offered. Then, I tried Duct Tape and voila! They went away.
If you need more info, send me an inbox!

EDIT: Don't give me rude feedback for no reason. It worked for me and as a matter of fact, my DOCTOR who is HIGHER and more EDUCATED than a "dermatologist" recommended it to me. I DID talk to a doctor before trying it, jerk. And men don't have more skin on their feet. If you don't believe me, get some common sense.
(Rating: 2) Yes, my friend said he had tried duct tape over his wart on the sole of his foot. He did that for two weeks and kept putting new pieces of tape on his foot throughout the day walking around while it starts to slide around. He'd put it on at night before he went to bed, also. But, it had no effect. I believe the reason is his Plantar wart was about one year old and he said he had felt the bumps of callous skin above the Plantar warts during that time. When you tried it it probably worked better because yours were not that old. Also, possibly, the skin on the soles of a girl's foot is thinner and less durable, in a sense, which allows greater affect when using duct tape. If you don't believe I am accurate on this then call a PROFESSIONAL Dermatologist. What else could be the reason why it didn't work on the soul of a man's foot? Have the doctor explained to you how it works in removing a Plantar wart. And, then it might make more sense about what I'm referring to about the tender thin soles of your bare feet allowing that treatment to work better for you and others like you.
