I had one on my thumb for a while until I got pee'd off with it and set about it with a pair of sterilised nail clippers cut down an pulled the root out looked like a tiny onion with a stalk it’s never come back no scar either miraculously

Update: had a diabetic checkup with the doc and asked for for salicylic acid to paint on my warts (only good thing about diabetes is free scrips!). So far so good. Not sure if I’m killing good flesh or still zapping warts but I’m making progress.

Apple cider vinegar gets rid soak in cotton Wall then place over the wart and wrap in masking tape goes in a couple of days worked on mine and I tried everything
I did the same but with ordinary vinegar, dabbed it couple of times a day soaked in cotton wool, turned white & gone in a week, just fell away, good for all sorts of things vinegar.

Forget the salicylic acid, use the freezy canned stuff you use in the chemists. Sorts em in no time. Remember to (gently) file off the white crust bit first.

A/ it’s fook8n expensive. I have some liquid N but that might be ott.
B/ it hurts.
C/ my warts seem to be wide and not really rooted.


Otherwise yes!

I had 6 or more warts on my hands as a teenager.
My grandmother saw them one Xmas and she tock me to one side and offered me a penny for them , I said 'sold' as I was becoming more and more conscious of them. Out came the penny ( old type) . They were gone within a week.
 
Not worked on me that stuff
I got a veruca on my to and its had 4 goes of silver nitrate and 3 goes of the canned feeezy stuff

After you have been in the bath, file the thing down until you get to the live bit.

Get the freezy stuff and hold it on. If it doesn't blister up relatively quickly then you need to file it down more or hold it on longer.

A friend of mine removed a wart by freezing it using a good spray from one of those cans of air duster/canned air the sort you clean crumbs out of your keyboard with. Not sure id recommend that.

The salicylic acid thing never worked for me. The pain was bearable and certainly worthwhile in my view.

I sand it down till it gets sore
Best thing I ever used was dry ice
