Does vinegar remove plantar warts?!


Question: I have had 2 plantar warts for 8 months and I see another one starting to come in. I heard that if you tape a cotton ball soaked in vinegar to your wart for 1-2 hours every day it will go away. So I did that last night, and it seems to be working so far, but I don't know if it will make the wart go away completely and permanently. Does it work, and if so, how?

i've heard that lemon juice works, but i recently had one, and i used that compound w freeze off stuff. it really reduced the wart in size and made it more fragile. under the skin of the planter wart is this yellow, root like stuff sticking out from the spot. i clipped that all out with nail clippers, put on some neosporin, and it went away within a week or two. don't they suck though!!!

nooo..lemon juice does.try it...

I had to use acid pads.

No.
I tried even that over the counter stuff & it actually made my wart get bigger, so be careful.
I've only had success by eventually going to a doctor for removal after trying all kinds of things.
Sorry.

Plantar's warts have roots that are VERY long. Vinegar (or lemon juice) might make the surface part go away, but more will keep coming until the root is removed.

I've seen one pulled from a foot & it was really disgusting--about 2 inches long! (although not at all thick--like a few strands of thread braided together)

Didn't you mom tell you: you get better results with sugar than vinegar.

Be very sweet when you visit the dermatologist. In that way he or she be happy to answer all your frog-like questions.

my son had them we did everything went to the dr had cryo surgery that mean freezing them then someone told me to try tagament the medicine you use for ulcers because warts were a form of ulcers well he took one a day for 6 weeks and they were gone I dont know the logic behind it but I dont question what works since then a couple of my friends kids have gotten warts and they used tagament same thing they were gone within 6 weeks good luck

no

I used to have warts and what worked really REALLY well for me was a combination of the wart removing band-aids and a wart removing liquid used at the same time. you got to leave it on until its raw but i had several on one foot and after the treatment I never got warts ever again! try it out if you'd like but personally I believe that is the best treatment to get rid of warts quick. you shouldn't go with the home remedies if you want quick definite results.
