There are many ways to remove warts. However for some wonderfully strange reason, it is the cheapest, most painless, quickest, and least destructive method that works best. I've had them frozen (ineffective and painful), cauterized (effective but very painful and very destructive, long healing time), and surgically removed (moderately effective and painful, and long healing), used acids (painful, ineffective, timely), and even herpes medications (embarassing, timely, messy) but the best treatment is actually something you can do at home.

It sounds too good to be true, but after trying to solve my plantar wart problem for ten years, I got desperate, and to my complete surprise, this works wonderfully. And it's pretty much free.

Things you'll need: sandpaper, pummice or scalpel, Duct Tape, and a banana.

Steps:

1. Peel banana, then eat it (eating is optional), save peel.

2. Look at your wart, if it is heavily callused, try to cut or sand the skin down a bit (if it starts bleeding, that is plenty).

3. Cut a square of banana peel that is a little larger than the surface area of your wart.

4. Place the peel directly on wart and cover liberally with duct tape (use plenty of tape, and place the peel inside side to the skin).

5. Leave on overnight, or as long as it stays on.

6. The wart should begin to turn white so you'll see it better.

7. Depending on the size/deepness, keep sanding it down or slicing off the dead skin, and reapplying the peel/tape daily or as needed.

8. Eventually (for small warts it could be as little as a few days, larger ones might take weeks) you'll go to scrape off the dead skin and find no warty tissue left, only healthy pink stuff. I usually do the peel/tape for one more day after this point just to be sure.

9. Enjoy and take care of your newly wart-free pain-free skin!

It's ridiculous how well this has worked for me and how all the other methods have been expensive and failed. Hope it helps!

warts can be removed in a variety of ways, either over the counter meds, or by

a doctor using a freezing technique to remove it. There is also laser removal, and it is only slightly painful, but very quick!

Warts are a very common skin complaint that are caused by a virus. Although most people will have a wart at least once in their lives, they are still uncomfortable and embarrassing to have. Additionally, they are most often found on the hands, making them easily visible to people that you know through work or school. Wart removal is best when done by a doctor, but there are also many at home remedies which are effective and less expensive. Use this guide to help you remove unsightly warts on your body.

Salicylic Acid

This is without a doubt the most common, simple and effective way to remove warts at home. Salicylic acid is available as a commercial product in any pharmacy, and is usually branded as a wart remover like Compound W. The salicylic acid is liquid and is usually brushed on the wart directly. For best results, soak the wart in water for a few minutes first. A few days after applying the solution, you should notice that the top layer of skin is dead. File it away and reapply the salicylic acid up to twice a week for an aggressive solution.

Garlic

Since warts are technically a virus that manifests itself as a skin condition, many foods that are proven to be antibacterial can help to eliminate the virus in the body. It is a great option to try alongside other products. Take garlic pills for several days or even weeks if the warts persist, or try eating garlic in more of your meals for an affordable solution.

Salt and Water

One of the simplest ways to remove a wart without purchasing an expensive product is the salt and water method. Start by soaking the wart in warm water for a few minutes, and then use a nail file or even a pumice stone to scrape off any dead skin that you can. Apply some large grains of salt onto the wart and firmly tape it in place with a bandage. After a few days, the salt should help the wart to reduce in size and the top layers of skin to flake off.
