TEA TREE OIL

4 YEA

[YEA]  04/10/2007: Marc from london, UK writes: "tea tree, the fastest and most effective cure for common warts"

[YEA]  12/13/2006: Edwina from Lexington, KY writes: "I applied tea tree oil to wart on bottom of son's foot for two weeks, twice a day. When skin had pulled away from wart, and wart was at surface, we soaked foot for about an hour. The wart removed itself from son's foot. We were absolutely amazed! The skin healed back quickly with no scarring. Thank you for making your website available to all for free!"

[YEA]  Wendy from Bedminister writes: "I too had a wart come up. I used tea tree oil and amazingly it did go away. Wow I was so happen I had the wart for years."

TEA TREE OIL, DMSO

09/24/2009: Paul from Bloomington, In writes: "I've had planters warts several times in my life. First time I had them I tried having it burnt and cut out by doctors. Strangely not only did this not work it actually increased the size of the wart. I'm not sure how I came up with this method but I have owned two health food stores so I come into quite a bit of misc information from time to time. I heard that tea tree oil helps to eliminate warts so I started to put that on with a cue tip. With the other side I put on DMSO as it has the ability to draw things deep into the skin. After some days the wart whitened and I started the process of scrapping out the dead skin with a sharp knife to get to the live wart below. In less than two weeks the wart was completely gone. I had suffered with this wart for nearly two nears. I started to always wear shower sandals and avoid subsequent infections until about 10 years later when I stopped wearing them for a while and got infected again.

Again I tried the same process of Tea Tree Oil followed by DMSO and periodic scraping and in about two weeks it was gone. It would have taken less time if I added an Indian healing mud called ____which is simply bentonite clay earlier. This wart was a little more stubborn so after the Tree tree and DMSO and scraping I'd apply the mud and leave it on for the night.

I would be very surprised if this did not work for somebody else. The only thing is you have to be diligent. Every day before bed you need to do this process. Yeah its a little pain but it will cost way less than the doctors, and certainly will be less expensive. Most importantly it actually works."

TEA TREE, COCONUT OIL

1 YEA

[YEA]  06/20/2009: Kalee from Rice Lake, WI writes: "About 8 months ago I had two warts around and under my pointer and middle finger of my left hand and one on the middle knuckle of my pointer finger on my right hand. I had these warts since I was 16 (I am now 20), so I had them for about 4 years. I had tried many things: Banana peel, duct tape, nail polish, apple cider vinegar, cutting them off, wart remover, freezing them...The list could go on. Some of them decreased the size by a small margin, but barely noticeable. I perform on clarinet and piano, and to have unsightly fingers as mine was embarrassing! Like I said, I tried all those things. I came across the combination of tea tree oil and coconut oil by trial and error. I love this site so when I got fed up with the warts, I came here. I tried tea tree oil on it's own, but it burned my fingers and they turned red and peeled where i had placed the cotton ball. They started going away! But I couldn't stand the burning when I used it. I saw some people used coconut oil on here, so I tried that by itself and it worked a little bit and it healed the burns from the tea tree oil. Then I combined the two and voila! No burns or peeling skin and the warts were gone by the fourth or fifth day of use! What I used was a very small part of a cotton ball with a dab of tea tree oil, then I put a bit of coconut oil on my fingers and wrapped a bandaid around it. Don't use a whole lot of tea tree oil, the piece of cotton should be small enough to fit over the wart, but not much bigger than that. Use more coconut oil than tea tree oil so that the burns won't be that bad. Hope this helps those who can't find a cure like I couldn't!"

THUJA

2 YEA

[YEA]  08/29/2007: Melissa from Alexandria, Virgina writes: "My son had a wart on his finger. I bought Thuja ointment, available at any healthfood store. We used it every night for 5 to 6 weeks. He complained that it wasn't working until one day it started drying out and flaked away over the next few days. My husband had 3 or 4 on the bottom of his feet. He also used the ointment with amazing results. This homeopathic OINTMENT will cure warts. Give it time. It is not an overnight cure. And also put a bandaid on top at bedtime."

[YEA]  08/09/2007: Adam from Andover, Massachusetts writes: "I had plantar's warts on my feet for many years. A naturopathic doctor told me to buy thuja oil and finely chop up an aspirin and make a paste using about 5 or 6 drops of thuja oil on the aspirin. Apply the paste to the plantar's warts.

I did it and after about two weeks the warts disappeared completely. Thuja oil can be bought at a health food store or online. There were a few times that I applied the thuja oil directly without the paste. It killed the virus and the warts went away. This was six months ago and my feet are fine,fine, fine!"

TOMATO JUICE

1 YEA

[YEA]  Kylie from Mesa, Arizona writes: "I began getting hooked on clamato juice (tomato juice w/ clam juice in it). I have been drinking probably 4-5 glasses a day. I have about ten warts on my hands and I have noticed they have all decreased in size and some of them have already disappeared."

TUMS

2 YEA

[YEA]  04/12/2008: Steven from Chiang Mai, Thailand writes: "Apple Cider Vinegar, HP (remedy) plantars wart(ailment):

I have had plantars warts on the bottom of my feet for close to 15 yrs now... 4 of those years they were nothing more than an irritating itch that i could put up with without much of a headache.. then i started to scuba dive and i found my feet burning inside my fins and progressivly got more irritating.. my guess is the salt water and depth combination had a hand in that. so after a year i moved off the island i was living on and moved back to the city... i think i should remark that i never had much knowledge about warts.. always had perfect skin even as a teen.. went to the doctor 5 times to remove 5 warts... using the usual freezing,burning,cutting and combinations of all of the above with the horrible result of the warts growing back much bigger after each operation.. the doctors said that the root wasnt cut out so the warts would just return... (should have told me before he took my money i think).. tried the duofilm and urine cream... just burned holes in my feet making me so sensitive that i walked on the left side of my foot... causing my bone on the outerside of my foot to change shape to the point of being able to bear my weight on the bone instead of using the ball of my feet..in a clear act of despiration after stopping the duofilm (used it a year without positve results) i contemplated drilling a hold into my foot.. filling it with super glue and yanking it out of my foot.. i know i know.. crazy... but pain 24/7 for so long made me alittle desperate to be free of it... i had looked on the internet numerous times but never came across ACV before.. this is about 2 weeks ago.. ive been using acv full strength everyday now for 7 days.. the first day i just stuck my whole foot into a plastic shoe box with my heal elevated by a small plastice box inside.. the burning came after the first 20 min. but desperate to remove this virus from my foot i left it in for 90 min.. then washed it off with clear water and applied a small piece of duct tape with a piece of cotten in the middle soaked in acv.the following morning the area looked like it had swollen 2 times the size.. so i used a razor blade to trip off what i thought to be dead skin.. finally trimmed across the vein or hole that the virus i guess is using to breath and bled for 30 min..i have been applying the tape,cotton and acv coninuously now for 7 days.. also drinking Ted's recipe for acv.. the reults have been excellent so far.. although the pain for the past 7 days has prevented me from much getting sleep. the wart is black/red now and i think dieing.. i hope. if it works.. ill be jogging often.. thanks very much for the information shared here by all... i think if this didnt work i would have tried the super glue.. OUCHHH.. ill post again when my feet are clear..."

[YEA]  03/20/2007: James from Victorville, California writes: "This may be posted in wrong area, but I have a strange cure for warts that worked for me. A math teacher of mine in my 10th grade year noticed I had them severely on my hands. By severe, I mean, dermatologists could not get rid of some by burning or freezing. She recommended I try Tums Antacids. I chewed 1 regular strength mint pill once a days before bedtime. In no longer than a month's time, my warts had simply ceased to exist. I had tried everything before, dermatologists, duct tape, liquids, but this method worked best for me. I will say, i do randomly have one spurt up from time to time, but I just start tums again, and away they go. So hope this helps."

URINE

1 YEA

[YEA]  08/02/2008: Deb B from Layton, UT writes: "Urine therapy cured my warts. All 3 times that I have gotton pregnant I get warts. The past 2 times I have had them frozen off in my ob/gyn office. This past time I got a lot of them and they spread into my nailbeds were they were no longer able to be frozen. My gyno sent me to a dermatologist and they attempted to remove them with chemo injections. I got about 10 shots in my nail beds with hurt like crazy yet nothing happened to the warts. I went back a month later to the dr. as advised and he decided that they were stubborn enough to not continue with the shots but to rather try a topical treatment called DNCB. Some sort of chemical that is suppose to induce an allergic reaction and have my immune system fight off the warts. Well, it back-fired. I applied the treatment as prescribed and I ended up with huge puss blisters which they said were normal but it developed into a bad strep infection. I got really sick: fever, chills, achy, and fingers that were disabled (which was really difficult with a newborn baby). I was put on an antibiotic for the strep infection and started feeling better slowly. About a month last I developed some bowel problems and started to feel sick with bloody stools for about a week. I went to the dr. again and it was decided after a ton of testing that I had "Antibiotic enduced Colitis". I couldn't believe it. All this just in hopes of taking away a few warts. I of course was fed up so I got online. This is when I found urine therapy. It sounded easy enough, cheap enough, and it couldn't seem to hurt. I wasn't brave enough to actually drink it but I read that by just putting the urine on the warts would do the trick. I figured I could handle that so I did it and IT WORKED!! I can't believe it. What a miracle. After all that trouble, money, pain, and all I had to do was pee on my hands. The warts that were once "stubborn" and huge, cracked, bleeding are now a problem of the past. I don't know why or how it works but I am glad I know this cheap and painless cure."

VITAMIN C, LEMON JUICE

[YEA]  02/28/2008: nancy from san diego writes: "i read alot of remedies to remove embarrassing warts and after alot of reading i tried several things like acv 2 a day on warts i tried this every day for a week and some warts did disappeared but others did not i had some that were colored that were difficult to remove and were very itchy at times so i decided to try something different i crushed about 3-4 vitamin c tablets and added about 1 1/2 tsp of natural lemon juice mixed these two ingredients and made a paste i got a few cotton balls and soak the mixture on it then applied this to the colored warts that were more hard to remove i left this on the warts for a while about 30 min while i laid down i got to admit this stings or burns more than the acv but it is well worth it when i got up to remove the cotton ball they had stains i was a little scared but when i checked myself the warts were gone it was unbelievable! this web site is a real blessing !! i hope this info is helpfull and hope everyone stays healthy and gets better."

VITAMIN E

6 YEA

[YEA]  04/17/2009: Anna from Philadelphia, pa, usa writes: "Vitamin E worked wonderfully for my son, then in grade shool. He had a huge wart at the top of right palm.One evening he was really sick of it so before bedtime I just squeezed content of one vit E 400 capsule. He put sock on his hand not to stain bed sheets. In the morning there was no trace of it."

04/19/2009: M from SF, CA replies: "We (the ones that are believers in in FACTUAL remedies)... believe you.....NOT! Nothing happens overnight. Try again."

[YEA]  10/10/2008: John Doe from Orangeburg , S.C. writes: "Vitamin E works inside and out of the body at the same time. It makes the warts just shrink down and go away. no discoloration or any thing. I also put Noxzema on them it works with the E and cuts the time to a couple of weeks."

[YEA]  08/27/2008: Joyce from Joelton, Tn writes: "To all those with warts: I haven't had a wart in years so haven't checked out information given me about 28 years ago. One young woman had a bunch of warts, many on finger tips and some of them even growing up into area where distal nail connects to skin. She later came in and showed me her wartless hands and gladly shared with me when I asked her how she got rid of them. Her method was piercing a vitamin E soft-cap or pearl and applying vitamin E to her warts about times a day. You wouldn't have thought she had ever had a wart at all."

[YEA]  07/03/2008: Paula from Albany, Ga writes: "My son had terrible warts on the bottoms of his feet and also his fingers. We bought a bottle of NATURAL vitamin E 400IU. He took one in the morning and one at night. At night before going to bed,we poked a pin in a vitamin E pill and rubbed the oil on the warts. In three days the warts turned black and started falling out. In two weeks they were completely gone. Three of my friends who have had warts tried this with the same results. My sons warts have never come back. Hope this helps someone!"

[YEA]  11/18/2009: Rr27454 from Madera, Ca replies: "I had a wart on my check. I tried the ACV, sesame oil (it burned my face), the potatoe rememdy. I was getting very discouraged and I cut a lemon wedge and held it against the wart for an hour or two everyday and put vitamin E during the rest of the day. I cut open a vitamin E capsule, spread the oil on the wart and on a bandage, and changed it in the morning. It took about 1 week and the wart is almost gone. I am still putting on the vit e. Cover your wart 24/7 until it is gone."

[YEA]  Ed F. from Greenwich Ct writes: "20 Yrs ago I was bothered with a plantars wart on the ball of my foot.....for two years I picked away at it to no avail.....finally it started spreading so I started reading about how to get rid of it.... From a home remedy book I found the solution that actually worked.... Vitamin E capsules... I spread it over the wart every night and took one orally. Within a week or so it was GONE.... worked for me!!"

VOODOO REMEDIES FOR WARTS

19 YEA

[YEA]  09/15/2009: Jeri from Geneva, Ohio writes: "My 3 year old grandson had several warts under his nose. His mom had had some burned off twice before, but could not put him through that again. I found the raw potato remedy on this sight and figured we had nothing to loose but a potato. I cut the potato in half, peeled a little of one edge away so we could make good contact with the warts under his nose. We rubbed the warts ONE TIME, ensuring we got the juice on all of them. He and I then went and buried the potato in the back yard and didn't tell anyone where we buried it. Within a couple days, one at a time, the warts started getting smaller and within three weeks, they were all gone. You couldn't even see where they were. This is truly a miracle cure
and hope everyone tries this. Thank you for your publication!!!"

[YEA]  04/07/2008: Kevin from San Antonio, Texas writes: "I'll add my voodoo cure which coincides with others already listed.

I had a wart on my thumb which refused to go away. I tried the OTC remedies and finally gave up. I took a razor blade and grimly cut deeply into my thumb in an attempt to remove it. My reward was an additional wart appearing as well as the original again returning. I told a friend about this and he laughingly told me that he had had one and his mother had told him to scrub it with a cloth and then bury it. He said he knew it sounded crazy, but it had worked.

I didn't give it much more thought until one day when I was over at his mom's and he brought it up. His mom confirmed it and also stated that if you buried the rag on the property of someone else, they would get the wart. I decided to finally give in and give it a try (No, I didn't bury it on another's property.). To my amazement, the wart just disappeared. I didn't expect it to work and used a greasy rag I was working with in my garage. But, work it did."

[YEA]  02/20/2008: Robyn from Perth, Australia writes: "My friend's son at age twelve had many warts on the palms of his hands which caused him much embarassment. I told him that I would 'buy' them from him. I put a pile of coins (approx $3) on a shelf in his mother's kitchen. I told him that now that I had bought his warts they would soon disappear and then he could take the money and use as he wanted. Took about a month. Warts all gone!"

[YEA]  12/08/2007: Lorrie from Santa Fe,New Mexico writes: "When I was around 12 or 13 I had a large wart at the base of my right thumb nail. I would pick it all the time till it bleed, because I hated how it looked and felt. I remember one day I was out walking for miles, picking my wart as usual, out of habit, when I suddenly got an idea. I thought, if I try to love my wart instead of hating it, what will happen? You guessed it, it went away in a few weeks never to return."

[YEA]  11/05/2007: Marty from Seattle, WA writes: "As a child, I had persistant warts on my left hand, I had about 5-6 that wouldn't go away. My mother told me to rub a penny on them. So I did and they went away."

[YEA]  02/23/2007: Gwen from Lakewood, CO writes: "Hey, I like this remedy consideration... When I was a child living in rural area, I had this obcessive fasination with Frogs. At the end of Winter ponds would thaw with floating hibernating Frogs banking on the shore. I'd thaw them out, use them in Science Fair projects, watch them grow, & love them. Everyone said not to play with frogs because their "Pee" would grow Warts. AND I did have Warts all over my hands, & arms. I use to chew at them which drove everyone crazy. One weekend when I was visiting with one of my really cool aunts, she told me if I took a cotton thread in white & counted my Warts & add as many extra that you might think you missed, & tye that many knots in the thread. Bury it in the dirt & when the string roits your warts will be gone.....It worked for me, 8-9 years old. I've paid attention to "Voo Doo" remedies for years... Pretty interesting stuff. Good Luck!"

[YEA]  02/14/2007: William from Evans, GA writes: "When I was a young teen, I had this huge wart on my knuckle for years. everytime I hit it on something it would bleed. One day while visiting my mother in law, she said to steal a washrag when no one was looking and bury it under a rock... Now I thought I had heard it all, but I tried it and within about two-three weeks the wart was gone.....I had tried for years to get rid of it and nothing worked....after the wart left I threw all the different medicines away....to this day I do not know how that worked but I do know it worked and even 50 years later I have never had another wart."

[YEA]  01/24/2007: BJ from Everett, WA writes: "I was reading your voodoo section on warts. When I was a child, I hate an enormous wart on my wrist. My mom took me to the doctor and I had it burned off. It soon grew back to TWICE the size! I was horrified. Then my step-grandma told me to pop a vitamin E oil capsule and put that on it everyday with a bandaid and in ONE MONTH it will go away. I did it religously every night and it took my HUGE wart away, never to grow back again! I recommend it to everyone!"
