Warts


Question Posted Tuesday March 8 2005, 12:45 am

Does anyone know a very good way to get rid of warts, like on your hands and stuff, because, I've tried so many products and they suck. So, does anyone have any recommendations?

If you freeze them off, the will sometimes re-appear if the entire root has not been killed durring the freezing.

To help ensure that this doesn't happen:
After the pain dies down, anywhere from 2-5 days after your get it frozen off, you should start to soak the area in warm water.

Also, take an emery board, or soft sandpaper and sort of sand away the callous left behind.

Keep the area covered with a bandage to keep moisture in.

Also, you could try sticking duct tape on it, leave the duct tape on until it gets nasty, take it off, and start all over again.

I got all of these from my doctor, and from my sister who had to deal with a nasty wart on her foot when she was younger.

Thinking posatively, and being confident that the wart will go away helps too. Trust me. When my sister had to deal with freezing after freezing, and burning after burning, for at least 3 years. One summer, she was scheduled to get it surgically removed. After she got that appointment she began to think posatively about it going away and it ended up dissapearing before her appointment even came.

I had a wart on my hand and I tried pretty much everything to get rid of it. I went to my doctor, and she ended up burning it off. She puts novacaine on your wart through a shot, then pretty much burns it off with this special tool (no clue what it is). They go away permanently and it's not painful at all. You might be left with a small scar, but other than that nothing will be there. It's quick and it takes about a week or a few days for it to heal. Hope this helped.

My boyfriend said to me when he had a wart that he went to the doctor and they froze it with a needle and then it popped and it went away so i think you should do that. hopefully it will work! hope i helped!

Having it frozen off by a doctor would be your best bet. Other treatments might only cause it to go away momentarily. Freezing won't guarantee that it won't grow back (I had one on my finger that grew back after freezing) but I think it's the fastest and most affective method.

It takes a long time to get rid of warts. Go to the doctor. They are just plain stubborn.

MFS answered Tuesday March 8 2005, 12:52 am:
that all depends on how big it is... the salycilic acid treatments that are over-the-counter can work, but they only work on small warts. Anything more, especially warts that go deep into your skin, you'll need to have it frozen with liquid nitrogen, or have the strong salycilic acid put on it (burning it off).
