2 Pack of WartStick for The Removal of Common and Plantar Warts, Maximum Strength Stick, Salicylic Acid - 5.1g

I wish so much I took pics of before, during and after. The product works... I have been battling a wart on my finger/under my nail for almost 2 years. Have gotten it frozen off by a dermatologist, treated it with compound W, tried essential oils, manuka honey, apple cider vinegar... EVERYTHING, and all anything ever did was upset the wart and it would end up bigger and uglier, and came back with a vengeance. With each of those attempts, I could never get all the seeds to go away, and each treatment was REALLY painful.So I read a ton of the reviews on this WartStick, and decided that I would give it a try. It arrived and I had been attempting to treat my wart was manuka honey and manuka oil (alternating each day which one I used for about a week). The honey made the texture of the wart softer, so I'm wondering if that helped. The manuka oil was less diluted, and very effective at causing the wart to feel irritated, but not too much pain. Once I got the WartStick, I applied it immediately, being careful to only apply it to the wart and not the surrounding skin. I put a bandaid over it and when I woke up the next morning, it was much more aggravated, red and with some minor pain. I cleaned it up, reapplied the WartStick and bandage and this time didn't check back on it for a full 24 hrs... at that time the pain was HORRIBLE (not one review mentioned how much this would hurt, I wanted to throw up from the amount of pain my little pinky finger was in)! Worse then any attempt I had ever made to rid myself of this wart. It was red, my finger was swollen and I was questioning going to the doctor, worried about an infection. I decided that I would let it breathe without a bandaid or any kind of 'treatment'. 2 days of letting it breathe and scab over, I woke up that morning and part of the scab had lifted, so I went to lightly rub it off (to avoid it getting snagged) when all of the sudden the entire scab lifted off and to my surprise there wasn't a black seed to be seen!!It's been about a week now since I first applied the WartStick, my skin is still healing, but doesn't hurt whatsoever, there is still no signs of the black wart seeds and I've been making sure to apply a good quality cuticle oil to my finger, to care for the new skin. Because of where this wart was located, my nail bed may never be back to it's pretty self, but for the first time since having this wart, I feel like I have hope that it will not be returning.Please note that this will indeed become painful, but as for now, I see no signs of the wart returning and to me it was worth the pain.On another note, I've read that sometimes the hard to get rid of warts, have to become 'infected' for your body to fight them... I believe this product did that for me, quickly and effectively!I will update if this pesky wart returns, but for now I am hopeful that WartStick kicked it's butt.

I don't know why after 35 years of fighting 2 plantar warts and 15 years of fighting another wart on my finger that i only hard if this product a couple months ago. I have had every medical procedure (cutting, nitro freezing, burning with hot poker, burning with lazers, hot poker again) and tried every other home based therapy (compound w for years, dozens of home freeze kits, using stronger acids you can buy online that are marketed towards chemical face peals, duct tape, new skin for oxygen deprevation, apple cider vinegar, wart pads, etc etc).I'm on my 3rd tube and just ordered 2 more so while I am not relieved of my longstanding affliction I can positively report the most progress of any home treatments. For the plantar warts, 1 is at the heel and large about 2"x.75" and the other at the ball of the foot .75"x.75". The ball goes very deep and i discovered the heel presented at the surface only about 85% of the wart. The remaining part of this wart is at the side of the heel and doesn't show at the surface. This is why I believe no medical treatments worked because it wasn't 100% removed.Make sure you soak in water to see as much of the extents as possible but if you have a persistent on going problem like i have, use the stick all around the seen areas. Skin that is clear will peel and look normal but as you radiate out you may find additional under the surface areas with either blank skin (no common wart look but also no "fingerprinting" patterns. Keep going along these paths until you hit clear skin that peels away. This process may take several days or more. You'll know it's right when the skin turns all white.For coverings, I have used various bandaids from waterproof to flexible and they work reasonably well. I saw another reviewer here recommend transpose tape so i bought 6 rolls. I do not recommend this for plantars because the tape is porous and both the glue and the wart wax will seep out with pressure on the foot. 3M waterproof tape is the good and longest lasting. But if you have the patience and lack of pain for it I found the bandaid pad seems to really let the product work for longer. Bandaids fall off though so I wrap the bandaid with transpose tape all the way around the foot to keep secure but ripping hair off when changing and the extra effort this way requires has me just using waterproof tape over a generous amount of waxy wart stick. Be sure to cover your area plus some. Change twice a day and you should get results.For my finger i use a flexible type bandaid.I will not quit this time. I'll probably require at least two more months of treatment as all my previous efforts only made these things extra resilient. Good luck fellow sufferers!

This product is so much better than typical wart treatments. Liquid wart removers and even plantar wart removers contain less than half of the active ingredient than this wart stick doesn’t I also believe that the waxy stick formulation of the wart stick helps to keep it where it’s supposed to be vs the wart remover liquid. My son has a wart on his knee that we’ve been treating with liquid for over 6 months. It wasn’t getting bigger but it certainly wasn’t going away either. I bought the wart stick and after 3 treatments the wart fell off. I found it best to apply the stick and cover with a bandage. I have another family member with stubborn plantar warts on the foot and I’m hoping the wart stick is as quick and effective on it as well. Wart stick will be my first line wart treatment from now on. It works.
