2 Pack of WartStick for The Removal of Common and Plantar Warts, Maximum Strength Stick, Salicylic Acid - 5.1g

I wish so much I took pics of before, during and after. The product works... I have been battling a wart on my finger/under my nail for almost 2 years. Have gotten it frozen off by a dermatologist, treated it with compound W, tried essential oils, manuka honey, apple cider vinegar... EVERYTHING, and all anything ever did was upset the wart and it would end up bigger and uglier, and came back with a vengeance. With each of those attempts, I could never get all the seeds to go away, and each treatment was REALLY painful.So I read a ton of the reviews on this WartStick, and decided that I would give it a try. It arrived and I had been attempting to treat my wart was manuka honey and manuka oil (alternating each day which one I used for about a week). The honey made the texture of the wart softer, so I'm wondering if that helped. The manuka oil was less diluted, and very effective at causing the wart to feel irritated, but not too much pain. Once I got the WartStick, I applied it immediately, being careful to only apply it to the wart and not the surrounding skin. I put a bandaid over it and when I woke up the next morning, it was much more aggravated, red and with some minor pain. I cleaned it up, reapplied the WartStick and bandage and this time didn't check back on it for a full 24 hrs... at that time the pain was HORRIBLE (not one review mentioned how much this would hurt, I wanted to throw up from the amount of pain my little pinky finger was in)! Worse then any attempt I had ever made to rid myself of this wart. It was red, my finger was swollen and I was questioning going to the doctor, worried about an infection. I decided that I would let it breathe without a bandaid or any kind of 'treatment'. 2 days of letting it breathe and scab over, I woke up that morning and part of the scab had lifted, so I went to lightly rub it off (to avoid it getting snagged) when all of the sudden the entire scab lifted off and to my surprise there wasn't a black seed to be seen!!It's been about a week now since I first applied the WartStick, my skin is still healing, but doesn't hurt whatsoever, there is still no signs of the black wart seeds and I've been making sure to apply a good quality cuticle oil to my finger, to care for the new skin. Because of where this wart was located, my nail bed may never be back to it's pretty self, but for the first time since having this wart, I feel like I have hope that it will not be returning.Please note that this will indeed become painful, but as for now, I see no signs of the wart returning and to me it was worth the pain.On another note, I've read that sometimes the hard to get rid of warts, have to become 'infected' for your body to fight them... I believe this product did that for me, quickly and effectively!I will update if this pesky wart returns, but for now I am hopeful that WartStick kicked it's butt.

This is the only one of three home products I tried that worked.First I tried liquid salicylic acid. It never seemed to have much effect. I think if I had been able to apply it many many times a day it would have worked, but in my job environment, it wasn’t possible.Second, I tried the aerosol can wart remover to freeze it off. Never worked a bit. Following the instructions for amount of time the cold tip was in contact with the wart seemed way too low.Finally I tried this product. The waxy nature of the stuff makes it easy to apply a greater amount to the wart. I would do that and put on a small bandage. It was on my inner thumb.In a little more than a week 3/4 of the wart died and peeled off. I started adding a lesser amount directly to the remaining wart and used bandages with tiny little pads. Again in about a week it peeled away.Now at this point I couldn’t tell if it was all dead or not. I let it heal for a few days and saw what I thought was it starting to grow back, but in retrospect think it was not.So being unsure I did it again for several days. Finally I was convinced it was gone and I’ve let it heal up. Seems to be gone.I really do recommend the little 1/4 inch pad bandaids toward the end. It’s all about getting the medication on the wart and only on the wart to avoid as much collateral damage of surrounding tissue as possible.Way better than going to a doctor, painless, inexpensive. I recommend highly.

This product is so much better than typical wart treatments. Liquid wart removers and even plantar wart removers contain less than half of the active ingredient than this wart stick doesn’t I also believe that the waxy stick formulation of the wart stick helps to keep it where it’s supposed to be vs the wart remover liquid. My son has a wart on his knee that we’ve been treating with liquid for over 6 months. It wasn’t getting bigger but it certainly wasn’t going away either. I bought the wart stick and after 3 treatments the wart fell off. I found it best to apply the stick and cover with a bandage. I have another family member with stubborn plantar warts on the foot and I’m hoping the wart stick is as quick and effective on it as well. Wart stick will be my first line wart treatment from now on. It works.

I first noticed my warts on my feet when I was in middle school. And since then, I've tried everything. I used duct tape, over the counter freezing, callus remover, and regular trips to the dermatologist. If I lost diligence, the callus would grow and make it difficult to walk. I was always embarrassed to be barefoot around people. I would always have socks on, even around my boyfriend! Every doctor I went to would comment on how my warts were the largest they've ever seen. So that's a confidence booster.One dermatologist I had recommended salicylic acid, so I found the product with the highest percent of that. This wart stick has 40%(!). All other products I found had 10-15%. I smeared this on my many warts 1-2xs a day for months. It's been 1.5 years since I started buying this product, and I have to say that I've seen a 90-95% reduction of my warts. I can be barefoot without being embarrassed for the first time in my adult life, I don't completely clean the bathtub after I shower for fear of passing warts to my family. I'm free!So, this WORKS, and it's easy to use. Compared to weekly trips to the dermatologist, it's super cheap! if I could give it more stars, I would. If you're struggling with warts, please buy this product! Good luck!
