Warts Home Remedies

Duct tape occlusion therapy involves placing a piece of duct tape (or medical tape) over the affected area for a week at a time. The procedure is otherwise identical to that of using salicylic acid adhesive pads. One study found that the duct tape method was 85% effective, compared to a 60% success rate in the study's cryotherapy group. Other household remedies include the application of common household items, such as banana skin, vinegar, hot water and washing liquid, aerosol sprays, tea tree oil and other natural oils, unskinned potatoes, potato or cauliflower juice, salt, or vegemite to the affected area. Milkweed or dandelion sap is also used.

Accounts vary in regards to how long they must be applied in each session and how long they take to work. Without controlled studies for most household remedies, it is difficult to know whether the warts disappear because the remedies work, or if they disappear due to the individual's own immune system response to the virus (possibly augmented by a placebo effect).

The success of hypnosis in curing warts at least suggests that the condition may be cured by belief in a remedy, the placebo effect or other psychological means. Some household remedies are potentially dangerous. These include attempts to cut or burn away the warts. Incense is sometimes used in Asian countries to burn warts. These methods are very painful, and can lead to infection and/or permanent scarring.

Some of these homemade remedies may work from time-to-time, but most of them probably won't. If you want a reliable natural remedy that has worked for over 300,000 people, read Chris Gibson's book. Click Here!
