WartStickMaximum Strength Salicylic Acid Solid-Stick Common and Plantar Wart Remover 0.2 Oz

The media could not be loaded. Update 4 May 14th:Oh My Gosh.. I think it’s gone! Finally! Thank you thank you thank you!So after my last update I stopped applying the wart stick and used nail clippers to cut out as much as I could. My my skin dried completely by the next day. I could still see black spots, but I was too afraid to cut any deeper. I was shocked just how deep the layers of skins could be.Worried that I still had some of the wart remaining, I still refrained from using the wart stick and went about my day. My skin around the area peeled a bit, but not an alarming amount.I’d just been letting my finger exist afterwards. No bandaid no medication, but today I started picking at some dried skin around my cuticle. Well.. I noticed that the area where the black spots were showing was also slightly raised and…. Able to be peeled like a scab. So slowly I lifted the skin and…The black spots completely lifted too! The spots that were deep in my skin had completely rose to the top layer of skin. There’s nothing there now! My skin looks perfectly normal now!I’m including a photo. My skin is still dry along my nail bed and I did have press on nails prior so there’s dead skin and glue. I just can’t believe after a year or two of having this thing in my finger it’s finally gone.Update 3: May 5I haven’t experienced skin peeling.. unless I was suppose to peeling it myself because the skin did appear softer under the bandaid. Was concerned it was too moist from the product. This morning I cut away at the spot. Min. Discomfort. This the deepest I’ve cut away at the wart before using the product. Most of the blood vessels are gone, but I still see a few in the corners I wasn’t directly applying the WartStick. I have placed more product over the area now able to see a different layer of skin. (Again my wart is small on my pointer finger so precision is hard without using the edge of a clipper and cotton swab). Min. Tingling/burning after applying the bandaid. It goes away within a minute. I’m hoping by tomorrow I can clip away at more as I’m uncertain if my wart has a base due to its size.Update 2: Received April 30th. It’s the 2 of May 11:13pm. First day I didn’t cut the harden skin back as I’d cut it a few days prior. Day 2 I cut it back to make sure it was getting on the wart but not deeply enough to bleed. April 2nd.. currently.. I’ve noticed a slight burning sensation? Not consistent, but every now and then I’ll feel it. The skin is starting to turn white.For precision I use a Q-tip to gently smoother the product onto and then dab a good bit on the wart before covering with the bandaid. My wart is tiny which is why I was in denial it was a wart at first. Once you cut the harden skin back you can see the blood vessels from the wart. Actually, I’ll include a photo this time too. Will update again. (Video couldn’t get camera to focus.)First review:First day using it. I’m hoping this works. This has been on my finger for a year or two after getting my nails done at a salon. Thank goodness it hasn’t spread anywhere else, but it’s always bugged me. Mines seems to callous over which may be why it didn’t spread. I’ve cut it off several times but it always grows back. I had to accept that this was indeed a wart.I really hope this works. I tried another product and it sucked. I don’t feel any burning atm but I didn’t cut the wart open, but product has soften the area.I will say it seems to have something in it because it melted my press-on nail’s polish slightly. Lol. So hopefully it’s strong enough for this wart too.

...maybe not how you expect.NOTE: _This is not medical advice, I am simply retelling an experience with a product. Please consult a physician for medical advice_Perhaps there are different types of warts out there, but for the case we were dealing with here, this product worked- but in an unexpected way. We assumed the product was like a type of pimple-cream: put it on the affected area as directed, and VIOLA! But not in our case. After 6 weeks of use (about half the recommended time), it was evidence that the wax stick [not sure if it's classified as wax, but that's what I'm calling it here] was just deteriorating the skin around the wart/fungus, and not the actual wart itself.We've never dealt with this before, so we kept applying the wax at least daily, with reports of discomfort (it's literally melting away the skin [turns the skin white, as the wax erodes the dermal layers. The spent wax and skin need cleaned at least twice per day.)In short, because the wax seemed to be taking a very long time, with very little 'direct' effect, a lot of cleaning effort and pain; we decided to use a set of hemostats and pull the root of the wart out.In brief, the wax stick helped erode the top layers of skin to allow us to pull out the root of the wart. This erosion over the course of weeks yielded a small but tolerable pain (versus just cutting directly to the root). Once the skin was soft and white, it was easier to separate the tube of the wart from the sidewall, by twisting in clockwise and counter-clockwise circles/spirals; eventually prying it free from its base. Very painful processI have not been able to find a higher concentration of commercial salicylic acid without having to get into mild chemistry. Perhaps other people have a different type of problem or different experience, but this worked for us. It does cause pain if you rub acid on your foot and walk around on it.We kept everything clean, and after some time of applying product, we let the skin around it heal, and then began application again. We would dress the area with a non-stick bandage and tape. During one of the healing stages (6-8 weeks in), we used a scalpel (Exact-o actually/thank you) to carefully cut the skin free around the white stalk, and then used a slightly duller edge to 'pry' around the edges enough to get ahold of the stalk with the hemostats. At this point, we had to be very careful so as to not break the white stem (it broke once for us, and took a week plus to grow back strong enough to pull on). We very carefully attached the hemostat and locked them. Then, using precise gentle force- pull, turn and twist the stalk. The wart will be attached to the skin it's growing through, so we had to very carefully get the sides free. Because this is a delicate process, it took us over an hour. Using constant, but miniscule torque, we tore the sidewalls of the stalk, from the sidewalls of the skin (both cylindrical). At the base is a rough, root connection to the skin and because we had completely and cleanly separated the sidewall, the base root just popped out. We actually applied more wax to the hole ensure the root was "cleaned out" (but painfully increased closure/healing time)The healing time for a cylindrical wound took us longer time to recover from than a linear cut. During this time, we applied an antibacterial salve and dressed with non-stick bandage and tape. We kept everything clean with rubbing alcohol while working. We were warned not to break pieces of the wart off, as the new pieces may form a new, full, wart. We checked out the area twice daily- cleaning, and inspecting for new growth until the base of the skin was healed completely. [As an aside, we feel this originated from going outdoors in a sub/tropical area with lots of ground fungi- barefoot]So that was our experience, your experience may vary.Don't expect to just put this product on and make your wart go away magically. As noted from the other reviews, it can be painful depending on the user's tolerance level. It will take some effort to remove, and this product can help.5-stars

Wuau!!! Le doy 10/10 . La verdad recomiendo este producto si tienes mezquinos o barrigas

This product works so well. My son had a tiny wart on his finger and a large one on his knee. We tried all the over-the-counter things. Tried the set with the cryo-freezing, salicylic acid, and the Band-Aids with the salicylic acid patch. Nothing worked it just got really irritated and red but then kept coming back. So I took him to his pediatrician who burned it off. This was done twice and it came back both times.I did some research and followed Seattle Children’s Hospital protocol. I applied this wart stick and then slapped a piece of duct tape on it. I did this multiple times, always making sure that he had that on at night. When pulling off the duct tape, the old wart skin came with it when we would reapply and put on a new piece of duct tape. In less than two weeks, it was completely gone. Definitely the combination was very effective.I know the duct tape thing sounds very strange, and I was resistant at first when a friend told me but it’s on the hospital’s actual website for wart removal instructions. It irritates the skin and in the area where the tape is applied and causes your body to fight the virus that causes warts. In our case it worked. They all disappeared within days of each other. Even a questionable one on his foot. Make sure to use the basic silver kind.

It seems to be working, and it’s pain-free, but who designed this to look exactly like Chapstick? I’m keeping it in a box to make sure no one accidentally puts it on their lips. It seems like an accident waiting to happen, putting 40% salicylic acid on your mouth.
