What are warts and how to get rid of naturally?

Question

My stepson has one on his thumb.

Answer 1

A wart or a verucca is a small bump caused by a virus that infects the top layer of the skin.

Causes of a common Wart
A virus called the human papillomavirus or HPV. It is transmitted through direct contact and through shared clothings or shoes, especially through open cuts in the skin. It can also be transmitted if person happens to step barefoot on the same floor that has the virus

Warts can be treated by:

Over-the-counter liquids and patches with salicylic acid.
Cryosurgery or freezing with liquid nitrogen
Laser
Electrodessication, where electric current is used to destroy the wart tissue
Scraping with a medical instrument called a curette

Answer 2

no genital warts are curable but the treatment is excruitating herpes is incurable but even more excruitating and like HIV, it kills you eventually there is no way you can tell without a scan and you will need to get it sorted via a doctor. From what I know, genital warts are cured through laser treatment which freezes the warts off (i.e. there's no home remedy you can use and I don't recommend it anyway). these STDs will become a pain in the neck if you don't get them sorted soon (sooner the better, and the less painful). It's worth the few moments of humiliation to sort out something that otherwise will scar you for a lifetime. hope this helps

Answer 4

They used to call me the "wart man", cause mom taught me this secret : Take a kitchen match and sharpen it to a point. Strike the match and with it burning, useing the pointed end make an X on the wart as you are saying a word you will never remember. Blow out the match and toss it over your shoulder. Don't know how it works, but it always have for me....

Answer 5

Warts are caused by a virus. I had them bad as a kid but got rid of them.

Here's how. (Now don't laugh...)

Have someone, not related to you, rub the eye of a potatoe (I think we cut it and used the inside) on the wart by the light of the moon. Then bury it in the back yard.

We got this from my pediatrician and had our neighbor come over to help us out. I haven't had warts since. If that doesn't do it, there are plenty of OTC treatments or a doctor can freeze them off.

Answer 6

Well, nature somehow created doctors and I think you should go to one of them. Warts are a virus and you cant get rid of that...but, don't pick at them (this just causes more) go to your doctor and get them frozen off, then you can soak them with a wet cloth and file them down..it might take a couple of treatments from the doctor but it does work! Good luck!

Answer 7

I don't think you can get rid of them natuarlly, but they do sell some things at the pharmacy. Warts are virual and will spread so you should take of it asap.
