Home Remedies for Wart Removal

May 15, 2008



Wart is a rough growth caused by one of a number of strains of human papillomavirus (HPV). Warts are unsightly and can impede normal function. There are a number of over-the-counter and home remedies for wart treatment, but wart removal by a medical professional is most effective.

You get warts through direct contact with the human papillomavirus (HPV). There are 100 or more types of HPV. Several types of HPV have been implicated in the cause of cancer of the cervix. Many more types tend to cause warts on your skin. Common warts usually occur on your hands, fingers or near your fingernails. Other types of HPV tend to cause warts in other places, such as on the soles of the feet, the genitals, or the face and legs.

Home remedies for wart removal tip 1 – Douse lemon slices for two weeks with little salt in apple cider vinegar. After two weeks apply the lemon slices on the wart.

Home remedies for wart removal tip 2 – Garlic, which is used for many home remedies, is also reputedly a cure for warts. Just crush and apply to the wart twice a day. Variations on this theme are to apply duct tape over the crushed garlic.

Home remedies for wart removal tip 3 - Essential oil of tea tree is a powerful antiseptic which kills most bacteria and thus is an extremely potent method of wart removal. This method is also very popular due to its very high rate of success. Just apply essential tea tree oil directly on the wart daily until it disappears. This method should not take too many applications due to its effectiveness.

Home remedies for wart removal tip 4 – The duct tape method of wart removal may work because it cuts off oxygen to the wart virus, or because it changes the temperature of that area of skin.

Home remedies for wart removal tip 5 – The inside of the bananas also proved to be effective if applied on warts.

Tip 6 – Aloe has been used for hundreds of years apparently for wart removal. One can use it in either plant form which I feel is more potent or in cream form. Apply on wart until it’s gone. Aloe will of course also speed up the healing process.
