A while back I started applying a capsaicin liniment (Watkins RED liniment) to my toenails too eliminated nail fungus. I applied it twice a day, after my morning shower and before bed. After four weeks and less than $25, the fungus was undetectable on my toe nails.
So now I found a planters wart on the bottom of my foot about the size of a nickle. I tried duct but no success. I remember reading an article about cayenne pepper for warts so I pulled out the Watkins and made a homemade bandage from paper tape and a flat cotton pads. Soaked the cotton in Watkins Liniment and taped it over the wart and leave it on all day. Did this for 10 days and the wart is gone.
I’m sure you could also make a paste from cayenne pepper powder and olive oil to do the same thing, it’s just messy.

I went through earthclinic for solution and decided to try with Hydrogen Peroxide solution (65) and Bragg apple cider vinegar.
I filled the cotten bud with hydrogen peroxide solution clean the wart. Then I let the wart soak in the solution for a couple of minutes.
After that, I soaked a new cotton bud with ACV and put it on the wart with a plaster.
It stink the skin but I get used to it. I noticed the wart got smaller and softer the next day and after 3 days, the skin of the wart broke and the wart is almost flat.
I will continue this therapy as I believed it can finally kill it at the root and unroot the whole thing.

Now I had a wart on my toe and one on my finger. The thuja wasn’t working so I gave ACV a try. Small piece of a cotton ball with ACV taped with a bandaid or medical tape. Changed in the morning and evening. Within a couple days the warts would turn black. I picked the black part off and kept applying ACV. Sometimes it would BURN really bad but put up with it cause it’s working.
It did take a month or so to get rid of the finger one completely. it would turn black and I would peel it off. Give it a break from ACV and if it still grew back I’d do it again.
the toe one took a lot longe. Probably about 9 months to get rid of. I kept putting ACV on it for a few months then gave it break for probably a month. Went back at it and then it was finally gone after another couple weeks or so.
IT WORKS! I’m telling you. You just gotta stay consistent. Keep killing it with the ACV until you’re sure it’s really dead. The black might just fall off on its own or I guess you could pick it out like I did. Not sure if that’s recommended tho.

For many years, I had a wart on my upper lip. I thought it was a mole until one day, in the mid 1990s, I used a magnifying mirror to take a close look at it. Yikes!
So I searched online for a natural remedy. Some website (kind of like this one) had many posts from people who'd gotten rid of warts, most using vinegar, which was reportedly quick, but could be painful, and could leave a crusty black scab for a few days. But one post was about using hydrogen peroxide, just the regular 3% type (not food grade), available back then in any drug store. It would take longer, but no crusty black scab and no pain. So I tried it.
I set a bottle of hydrogen peroxide next to my computer, applied it twice a day with a Q-tip, and letting it dry. Every few days, the top layer of the wart would turn white and peel off. After about 6 weeks, the wart was gone and has never come back. There was never any pain. The wart disappeared completely and left my lip looking perfectly normal.

Just wanted to pass on what worked for me. Had a stubborn wart on my ear lobe a few years ago. Used ACV the first time and it resolved. Came back again in June 2022 and tried ACV, Banana peel and many other remedies till I came across Dr Andrew Saul's DoctorYourself website where he indicated wart cases which had been resolved with Ascorbic Acid crystals with water. Tried that but it did not work. However, when I applied Ascorbic Acid Crystal mixed with Coconut Oil to make a paste (toothpaste consistency) and applied it daily for a week or so, the wart resolved. The wart became black, then bleeding after which it went away. Its been about a month so far and skin looks fine and wart has not resurfaced. Just wanted to pass this along as the wart was very stubborn and did not respond to a lot of remedies. Good luck.

To remove warts, lightly ruff up the wart with a finger nail file. Lightly soak a cotton ball with ACV and hold it on the wart for 20 minutes for 5 -7 days. The wart will start turning black and will be completely gone in 10 days. No scars that come from surgery.

Two years ago, warts began to spread on my hands, and they increased at a rate of around one every two months, until they reached ten, I did not use any medical treatment for them during this period, until I read an information in an old Arab medicine book that says: If u kill the mother of the warts, the rest of the warts will die automatically without needing any treatment (the mother of warts is the first wart grown in the skin), so I treated it by placing a slice of fresh garlic on it every night and fixing it with a plaster until the morning, and sometimes I put it during the day also for hours, after a week gradually and slowly the wart began to dry, and the rest of the warts were also drying with it. It took nearly two months until it completely cured, and got rid of it all during this period, now after nearly six months of stopping treatment, there is no longer any trace of all of it, thank God.
I like to share my experience for anybody has the same problem.
