Otherwise there are two methods: destroy it with a salicylic acid based preparation, or freeze it with a kit you can get from the chemist. The local irritation/imflammation caused by freezing stimulates an immune response, and will likely serve you better in terms of recurrence in the future.

chinaski Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I had a couple a few years ago on my fingers. Stick an ice cube on them for a minute and then put a lit match or lighter to it for as long as you can stand. They scab over and fall off.

jongo Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 If you get a match (a red one not one of them safety matches) lick the end and just rub the red sulphur on the wart, after a few times doing this it falls off and cost a couple of pence for the matches, the wart remover from the chemists is over £10 for the good stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
