A Cure For Warts

originally posted 13 OCT 2014

My poor girl suffers with warts.

I've never had one and when she had her first warts a couple years ago, I had no clue what they were.

Took her to the dermatologist where they quickly diagnosed warts and froze them off. She said it felt like bee stings and she didn't like it.

She's a dancer. She dances four to five days a week and we're pretty sure that is where she contracted this virus and keeps contracting it. She's the only one in the family to get warts.

They appear on her feet and her knees. She usually gets about one to three of them at a time. So when she got the next couple a few months later, she begged me not to take her back in. We tried a few over the counter wart removers and they didn't work so well. So, did a bit of reading and decided to try apple cider vinegar.

We've had good success with ACV in the past. My daughter and I both have perioral dermatitis and it works wonders. Also, when my son was bitten by the brown recluse, ACV helped get him off all the antibiotics.

So, we've been using it on her warts and it works. It doesn't work over night but if we're faithful, it goes away within a couple weeks. We simply apply the ACV to a cottonball, stick it on the wart and put a bandaid over it. She sleeps with it and then takes it off before her shower in the morning.

Have you had to deal with warts? What worked for you?
