Combat Warts Naturally: Top Remedies Ranked for Effectiveness

I find that Tea Tree Oil is great for melting away WARTS ! I tried every cure from freezing to duct tape to cut it off with clippers. It always returned. I then tried Tea Tree oil. Would apply with qtip several times a day. I tried to put a bandaid on with the oil, but the oil would just melt the adheshive. In two weeks my wart was gone and never came back. Since then I have tried it on several relatives with the same great result. I am now trying on my sons acne and it seems to be working with no side effects or scaring.

Hello, I swear my life on this treatment. As a teenager i had only one wart . Really annoying i thought but was able to live with it. Couple of years later though the warts started spreading. You can imagine how embarrassing it was since they became quite visible.
My grandmas sister told me to put salicylic acid and to tomato on the warts and wrap them up. I did that twice a day putting generous amounts of acid on each wart and a peace of tomato. A week latter imagine my surprise THEY WERE GONE!!!!Have not had them since and I can tell you I had tried everything including burning with the really painful liquid nitrogen. It is a bit of a challenge to buy salicylic acid but you can definitely find it online if not in you local pharmacy. Good luck!!!

Warts!! Ugh. I had plantar warts and warts all over my hands. I tried the typical stuff: Compound W, that Sray cold/burning stuff you pay way too much for at the drugstore, duct tape, direct accupuncture on the warts (i'm not discounting accupuncture as it does often work wonders), having them professionally burned off (which worked but they came back within a month!). I spent several hundred bucks trying to get rid of those bastards. The plantar warts were of the 'mosaic' variety, meaning they were forming in clusters, especially on my heels. They were even beginning to hurt--not to mention that they were a source of embarrassment at the pool and in yoga classes.

I unenthusiastically tried organic ACV as a last resort and voila! Within a week to ten days those suckers were gone! They didn't peel off like they tended to do with the above mentioned treatments (only to return). The roots of them turned black and they just withered.

Here's what i did: took some gauze and saturated it with the ACV, and secured it with duct tape over the warts before bed. Did this for about a week.

I wish I had found this website earlier before spending all that money. Went to two doctors who, it turns out, were clueless. Maybe they were clued in on the fact that a 3 dollar bottle of vinegar (of which you're only using a few pennies' worth) can really do the trick--they make their money off of illness (in the U.S., anyway)

Incidentally, I've been meaning to post this for a while. Several months have passed and not a sign of a wart!!

ACV cure for warts (hand and foot): Soak enough cotton balls/ pads to cover your feet in Apple Cider Vinegar. TO get the best result, put the cotton pads soaked in ACV in a sandal which won't get ruined and will help keep the pads in their place (perfect shoe/ sandal: CROCS). Soak your feet for as long as you can-make sure you do this on a day when you're COMPLETELY free. When done, clean your feet with warm water and clean off the dead skin. When your feet are completely dry afterward, use a plastic foot file to remove rough skin and rub foot lotion.

I've been in pain for two years with foot warts and I've found the best 'medicine' (cheap, effective) only recently. I soaked my foot three times (almost 10-15 hours each time) and the effect was unbelievable! Now, I am completely wart free! All thanks to Earth Clinic and of course---Apple Cider Vinegar.

I was looking for a natural cure for warts as I recently had one on my middle finger and decided to try the banana peel & duct tape. I cut out a piece of banana peel that covered the wart and taped it there with duct tape. The next day I removed it and got another piece of banana peel and applied the duct tape again. On the third day I was teaching so I just applied the duct tape for the next few days and then it was practically gone. It didn't turn black, but the wart/skin started to slough off. Now there's a slightly pink area and no wart.

I had a plantar wart right on the edge of my heel that I could not get rid of. I tried the OTC freezing stuff and it did nothing. I starting putting ACV on a pinch of a cotton ball on it at night with a bandaid. I would also put a fresh one on in the morning and try to keep it on all day. This was during the summer even, I would just put a bandaid on it. It looked better than the wart anyway. After a few weeks, it turned white and eventually came out. The hold healed up and now you can't even see where it was and it has not returned after 2 years.

ACV for Warts: At first, i used thuja oil (Warts no more). Honestly, there was not much improvement mostly just redness. I had only tried it for about 2 weeks and one appeared to be getting smaller but it says it can take 2-6 weeks for thuja to work. I lost patience and i found this webpage and tried apple cider vinegar and in 3 days they are black and scabbed over!!! yes, it burns. It can be bloody awful at times but it's pretty damn worth it. Also I agree with the original poster baths help, warm water and then hydrogen peroxide really seemed to help. it fizzes a lot. which is a good thing i presume. the skin around the scabs has turned reddish so i'e been applying off and on tea tree oil and aloe vera. aloe vera calms it quickly. i didn't keep the bandage on all day mainly just 6-10 hours at night and when just hanging around at home i would reapply acv wait for it to drink up and reapply but you must bandage it for a continuous amount of time.

Good luck! give it a shot. for the nay sayers just so you know one of mine was stubborn, Very stubborn so don't give up after one try. be positive and take lots of ester-c (Vitamin c but the absorbable kind, vitamin c when taken in supplements is often not absorbed)

Cheers!

After numerous trips to the Dr. & failed painful treatments of the freezing method for the warts on my finger, my sister suggested this remedy. At night I wet a cottonball with the ACV then put it on the wart and cover it with a bandaid. I change this nightly. within 1-2 weeks my warts were gone.

I did not know where to place this comment....I would like to tell you how I got rid of my warts after six years of suffering. I was in real despair. They were so unsightly all over my hands and I was frequently breaking down and crying and was so embarrassed to go shopping...yes. One day I went into our garden and picked up a garden snail and rubbed it over my warts then I went indoors to the bathroom and peed - yes you heard right!!- on them. I did this for three or four days several times a day and noticed a very dramatic effect. After 10 days or so they were completely gone with absolutely no scarring and never to return. How's that??!! And all at no cost and the snail did not have to die!

I am not sure the snail had anything to do with curing your warts. It could be just the urine therapy on its own. I would not pick up a snail either, as in some areas they can carry the heartworm virus. People drink their own urine for cures, so i can quite believe the urine cured them.

Well, it worked! I wrapped the bandaid on it for 3 nights, then I took 3 nights off to let the sensitive skin around the wart heal. I was all set to resume the ACV treatments and the wart simply fell off! Total time from beginning to end was only 6 days. And this is after several years, and 2 rounds of prescription treatments failed. Just be sure to apply vaseline on the healthy skin around the wart when you start this treatment.

Hi I have about 10 warts on my hand and I tried a liquid medicine on my warts and they went away, but they came back with more later. Does ACV really work? And does it have any pain?

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...

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.

I had a wart on the bottom of my foot and i was thinking of all of the things possible to get rid of warts everything i thought of...milk water(of course that wouldnt work butanyway)ummmmmm i thought vinegar i looked in the cupboard and we only had apple cider vinegar still i used it with a bandage and plasters just a blob to make it moist and voila! ..it went brown hard ...browwwwwwwner then gone just gone!! ..but you have to'file it down with a nail file so its flat or soak it till its white then cut it ..owch but they are the most annoying things on earth !! go away!

I have had a large plantar wart on the base of my foot for several years. Had tried over the counter remedies, went to a foot doctor and nothing seemed to work. I then started using Oreganol P73 (mixture of oil of oregano & extra virgin olive oil) 3 drops onto a band-aid then placing on top of the wart. I did this every day, and after 2-3 weeks the wart dissapeared! Amazing stuff, as the wart I had was very large and I thought I would never get rid of it.

About a year ago I started developing huge warts all over my hands, probably 4 or 5 on each, and they were nasty. I was embarrassed by them, so I went to the doctor and for $300 and two visits he froze them, which was very painful. Well some of them went away, but came right back and even bigger. It also left scars. I read up a little on the internet, desperate for a remedy. Well, let me tell you Apple Cider Vinegar is an f--ing miricle! Every night before bed I soaked a cottonball in it and taped it to my hand over the wart. In the morning they would be swollen and a little painful, so you have to cover them with band-aids during the day. Anyway, it took ten days and they just eventually turned dark, shriveled and fell off. It was so easy and cheap and I haven't had a wart since. My mind is eased and I'm so happy I want to share the good news with everyone.
