How do you get rid of a wart at home?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Cover it with duct tape and keep it covered for a few days, replacing the tape when needed.... however that did not work for my daughter. I've also heard of taping a potato skin (white side to wart) for awhile... though I've never tried it. Liquid Nitrogen is expensive at the Dr.s office if you don't have insurance. This can be done at home, but there are safety precautions that MUST be adhered to, and you have to buy the liquid nitrogen. Even that did not cure my daughters wart, but after liquid nitrogen.... salicylic acid (applied daily and bought at the pharmacy) did end up working after a few weeks. It was almost as if the nitrogen weakened the wart and made it susceptible to the acid. Hope this helps.

Can tagamet treat warts?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The podiatrist I just went to, after a failed laser removal at a general doctor, prescribed prescription Tagamet 2x day along with covering the area with topical acid covered with Duct Tape. I thought he was on crack when I left his office, yet it seems to be working so far. This has been quite the ordeal and I will be in heaven if I have finally found a cure.

Is a wart an example of a nodule?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No, a nodule is a lump under the skin. A wart is a growth on the surface of the skin.

The above answer is incorrect. A nodule is an example of a wart. My information was found in a school text book, Body Structures & Functions Tenth Edition

Nodules:

Solid and elevated; however, they extend deeper than papules into the the dermis or subcutaneous tissues, greater than 10 mm

Examples:

Lipoma, erythema, cyst, wart

Can you take ramipril and st johns wart?

St Johns Wort has the same affect as 5HTP,they are both precursors of serotonin. Serotonin being the precursor to Melatonin. Keeping it simple if you take melatonin then start on a low dosage 1.5mg-3mg taking . Larger doses not being analogous to being more affective. Also if your body is low in Melatonin then it will work. If you find you take it and it doesn't have the desired affect with in a short time then your body has enough Melatonin and is not the reason you are experiencing sleep problems and you don't need it. Also some people report experiencing depression and dark moods with melatonin this possibly due to the body not requiring the extra melatonin. It may be better to try supplementing them separately to see which works best. Some people do well on only 5HTP. It is interesting to note that 5HTP-serotonin are produced during the day ready to be converted when darkness sets to be transformed into Melatonin. Also there is a very strong connection with Vitamin D deficiency and insomnia and depression. Vitamin D is the Sunshine hormone so that would also be worth looking into. A deficiency in the daytime hormones or their precursors can affect melatonin levels. Just take note of how you react to each one separately and base your judgment on that.

What should you do if you catch a wart and it bleeds?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If the wound won't stop bleeding, even after you disinfected it and put pressure on it, you may need to have a doctor or nurse practitioner look at it. There are many walk-in clinics these days, and a wound that continues to bleed needs to have a professional give it a look.

What do warts cause if you pop them?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No you can't pop warts and would be unwise to do so. You will break your skin open thus allowing infection in, which will then cause you more serious problems. If your not happy with a wart speak with your doctor to see about getting it removed. If you think your wart is popable then you should seek medical advice as it might be infected.

How do you get rid of flat warts?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

They hate rubbing alcohol....it takes a few weeks but if you dab the warts once or twice a day they will go away. For a very bad infection, it could take years but they will die. Peel the dead warts off the skin to the best of your ability and always follow up with the alcohol on the area. Stay focused, you are at war!

They give themselves away by itching (intensely) before they can be seen. Be sure to dab the itching area right away!

You can have thousands of warts on your hands and not know it as they hide under calluses. Pay attention and keep fighting. Be sure to put alcohol on your hands before going into the public areas or you will spread the infection to others. Wearing surgical gloves around the house will help keep the virus off door knobs etc. The virus will live forever on clothing. Spraying the inside of your clothing with alcohol will kill the virus. Washing white items in Clorox will do so also.

I have heard tea tree oil works....have yet to try that. I am winning my war but it is taking a long time as I had a very bad infection and did not know it.
