Search duct tape for warts! It would be a hard place to use it but it works! Regular ole duct tape...must be kept on all the time. I forget how long it takes, not too fun in summer with bathing suit season though!

you can go to a dermatologist and have it removed...or they can give you and ointment to put on it every night till it falls off, i've had both done...it's a virus that causes it, so if you can, have the doc look at it, and see which med is best for it so it doesnt show up somewhere else. also, ask if duct tape is still a good solution, i was told that it was way back by a doctor for a plantar wart. Good luck!

i had a wart on my arm, went to a dermatologist, he took used a numb dry ice and it took 10 minutes tops. i didn't feel any pain whatsoever and within 2 days the wart had fallen off.

try web.md for that cream.. I cant remember the name.. then ask your nurse to have it called in and then u dont have to go to the doctor Duct tape will be a temporary solution

i'm sorry to tell that it's probably time to go to the doctor. i feel your pain because i hate going to doctor and having any type of procedure. but i think it's your only option. my brother had one like that and the doctor cut it off...he said it didn't hurt because they numbed it.

I keep hearing this over and over...
" I don't want to go to the doctor..."
well kiddo, guess what? sometimes you just gotta bite the bullet and go.
