rexpotter Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 (edited) 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.

Popular Post Denim Posted March 18 Popular Post Share Posted March 18 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. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IvorBiggun2 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 (edited) I have a wart, coming to the end of its day now after being told to use superglue. Superglue is painless and really works. https://www.peoplespharmacy.com/articles/can-you-get-rid-of-warts-with-super-glue Edited March 18 by IvorBiggun2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post brianthainess Posted March 18 Popular Post Share Posted March 18 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. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Korat Kiwi Posted March 18 Popular Post Share Posted March 18 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! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rexpotter Posted March 18 Author Share Posted March 18 Apparently different things work for different people, have tried all the things people have mentioned save super glue which did not work for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Sheryl Posted March 18 Popular Post Share Posted March 18 Easy and inexpensive to have doctor remove with cryo. And safer/more effective than these home remedies. 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanadaSam Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, however, those of us on blood thinners it may well be better to zap with the laser as it seals the wound. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best just to let them go away on their own. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkk6060 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 (edited) 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. Edited March 19 by bkk6060 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sikishrory Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Light a match. Blow it out. Put on wart. It hurts but kills wart and is no more scarring than cryo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post kimothai Posted March 19 Popular Post Share Posted March 19 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. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surasak Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to do do one more swipe when I feel barbaric enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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'.
