DIY wart removal Warts are a very common problem. They can also be very expensive if you go to the doctor to have them removed. However, if you ignore them, they can enlarge or spread.
There are a number of counter-systems to eliminate warts and drugs. The gels, patches, sticks, and working fluids, but they take forever. Who wants to fool with it every day for 2-6 weeks?
Several systems freezing warts hit the market in recent years. These works, but they are very expensive ($ 15 to $ 25 for about 12 treatments). On a per warts, is still cheaper than going to the doctor, because each wart usually requires only 1-2 treatments.
What if I told you that you could reduce the cost of processing a few cents? Would you be interested?
After doing some research, I discovered that the freezing systems are simply aerosol propellant. It's a pretty expensive fuel!
You can get very similar results with a $ 5 can of compressed air, by following these steps:
1. Buy a can of compressed air from an office or computer store. This is sold to remove dust and debris from computer and electronic products.
2. Turn upside down, holding a cotton swab in front of the opening, and press the trigger.
3. Hold the trigger until the pad is soaked with fuel.
4. Quickly touch the stem of the wart, and hold for 20-30 seconds.
5. Wart should get more or less disappear in about two weeks.
6. Retirement after two weeks if necessary.
That is, other than a few caveats and warnings:
* NEVER spray near a flame can, lit cigarette, or your face.
* NEVER use near eyes or eyelids.
* NEVER, NEVER, NEVER sniffing any aerosol product, including compressed air.
* Do not overtreat, more is not better. Swap Holding on too long can cause a bad case of freezer burn and permanent scarring.
* Read instructions and warnings on the compressed air can
This procedure is not recommended for moles or keratoses, due to the fact that they can be cancerous or precancerous. Consult your dermatologist for them.
Here's another DIY treatment of warts: duct tape. Cover the wart with duct tape for six days, then soak the feet in water and rub the wart with a file or a pumice stone. Repeat the process for a few months until the wart goes away. Some believe that this irritates the wart and surrounding skin, prompting the body's immune system to attack.
