Hi,

Warts are common. There are a number of remedies that may help quite well for warts. These include applying garlic, applying sliced potato, apple vinegar, painting with nail polish, or applying duct tape daily may all work.

The one studies and found effective is applying duct tape, remove only when you replace with others. The easy one is Apple Vinegar. Apply cotton soaked in apple vinegar to warts daily for a few days. Try to keep it attached to warts by wrapping with a clean bandage.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Mahboob Ur Rahman, General & Family Physician
