Over a months’ time, I have stopped the itching, occasional bleeding and pain from a wart on my index finger by drying my hand out well first. Then after a swig of whiskey with alcohol and bandages ready I take a few good swipes at it. I repeated this process about 5 times. One more to go, but no more itching irritation or bleeding. It does not bother me at all currently and has been reduced substantially in size. All the stuff online, acid etc. never worked.

Be careful where you put your finger

Moving to the Health and Medicine forum. 

Hydrogen Peroxide ( 3% in small bottle available from any pharmacy )  works better than alcohol. Goes deep and kills germs.

 

Killed plenty of warts using it with no scar tissue.

I have a wart, coming to the end of its day now after being told to use superglue. Superglue is painless and really works.

White vinegar with lemon juice. Marinated then apply with some lemon 'flesh' and a plaster on top to hold in place. I had some removed with dry ice in a hospital, but they started to come back. then I tried the above method, they went and never came back. 

Ouch that sounded painful!  I was of the belief that it's a wart virus that causes them to occur. 

 

Cutting them off in your process is thereby likely to spread the virus resulting in more warts. 

 

I could be completely wrong however. 

 

I tried the salicylic acid method for a wart on my nose.  It stung like hell, and I still look like a witch! 

 

One day I may try the dry ice method via a doctors surgery but I'll test the super glue method 1st.  Hopefully without gluing a finger onto my nose! 

Apparently different things work for different people, have tried all the things people have mentioned save super glue which did not work for me.

Easy and inexpensive to have doctor remove with cryo.

 

And safer/more effective than these home remedies. 

2500 baht quoted at BKK hospital. With isopropyl alcohol and a clean new razor free.

You will likely spread the wart around by trying to cut it off yourself, in slices.

 

As Sheryl suggested, cryo is the best, fastest, and most effective way, why do you want to do it Bangkok Hospital, knowing they are the most expensive?

 

Find a cheaper place, even a roadside skin clinic should be able to do it for you, for maybe a couple hundred baht.

Agreed, however, those of us on blood thinners it may well be better to zap with the laser as it seals the wound.

Indeed you are correct, even when removed by a doctor.

 

Best just to let them go away on their own. 

So, it is still there just smaller?

Maybe it is skin cancer.

Unbelievable I guess to save some baht?

This should be a procedure evaluated and performed by a qualified Doctor.

 

Light a match. Blow it out. Put on wart. It hurts but kills wart and is no more scarring than cryo

I have found going to a Dermatologist and having them burned off with liquid nitrogen has worked 100% for me.  At least when you see a doctor they can determine exactly what is wrong.  This whole self-diagnosis/self-treatment is risky and could lead to further complications IMHO.  This procedure with the whiskey and razor is a bit too barbaric for me.

soldering iron works well too.. just dont go too deep into good skin layers .then apply antiseptic ...

The super glue sounds good to me. If you starve the wart of air it will usually dry up and fall out. Knives or razors should be a real No No.

The internet tells me the preferred method is liquid nitrogen, which is quite a lot colder than dry ice. I'm currently trying salicylic acid. I may try superglue, since this doesn't seem to be doing anything.

Used to have access to liquid nitrogen at work and used it several times to remove warts.

I don't think I am as civilized as you. Acid, Duct Tape and vinegar kind of worked but it didn't. I need to do do one more swipe when I feel barbaric enough.

Its been a month since the last swipe, and it simply does not bother me anymore, tiny bit of a scar there. I always like to keep in mind that everything on the web is always tainted and they always suggest things that don't work. The last line is always "See a Doctor'.

Shills get paid well to go on all these forums etc, to support Big Farma and the Medical profession. Last thing they want is for us to solve our own problems for free.
