How do I get rid of a wart?

Question

I had very very small wart on my neck for about a year or so. Now it hurts me. It got slightly red around the wart and when i touch the wart or when something touches it it hurts, as if it is pricking me. What is this a sympton of?

Answer 1

I agree with the other poster.


Small strips of duct tape will help remove it.


Duct Tape irritates the skin and causes your body to produce natural infection fighters. These go to combat with the wart and it will eventually go away. My mother's dermatologist told her to use it on one of the warts on her underarm and it took about two months to go away.

Answer 2

I have the same small wart on my neck. It irritataes when I wear tight colars. But the irritation will go away after a while of healing. Try not to ware anything that will rub it, don't touch it, and keep it clean. If the irritation dosn't go away in a week or so, go see a dermatologist

Answer 3

It could be a tumor, or you coudl be attacking it. You should probably see a dermatologist. If your body is attacking it, it will be shrinking and sore. if it is becoming skin cancer it will get darker, grow, and get sore.

Have a friend cut it off if you can't go to a doctor, or...oddly enough...put a patch of duct tape over it....yes, duct tape DOES help cure warts if you cover them with it for a month!

Answer 4

I used a bandage left on for a few weeks. I took it off slightly prematurely, by accident. It tempoarily left a hole which bled a small bit.

Answer 5

The best way is liquid nitrogen applied on a q tip by a proffesional/doctor,there are acids as well but not as effective.

Answer 6

Go to a doctor as fast as you can 'cause this can be serious and it will be really wrong if you try to cure yourself without specialist advice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
