Home treatment
Many people do not treat warts unless they are unsightly or painful. If you choose to treat your wart, home treatment is usually the first treatment tried. It includes:
* Salicylic acid, a nonprescription medication that softens the skin layers that form a wart so that they can be rubbed off. It is available as a paint, cream, plaster, tape, or patch that you put on the wart. Salicylic acid may take weeks to months to cure a wart. Salicylic acid formulas include Compound W Wart Remover, Occlusal, and Salacid.
* Tape occlusion (duct tape). This treatment uses tape to cover the wart for a period of time.
* Nonprescription cryotherapy. Although cryotherapy can be performed in your health professional's office, a type of this treatment for common warts on the hands and feet can be done at home. You spray a combination of two chemicals into a foam applicator and then hold the applicator to the wart for a few seconds. This treatment should not be used for children younger than 4 or by pregnant or breast-feeding women.
I know that the duct tape really works. It's inexpensive and can be fairly quick. Leave the tape on for a few days and remove to see if the wart will come off. You may have to do a few applications.
warts are caused by a virus, and thereby fingernail polis , will probably not help , compound w and other agents are salacilic acid and help kill the virus. Freezing or laser removals along with prescription agents can be prescribed by a physician
