Eliminating genital warts from the penis
Anonymous in Burlington NC -Simply take a pair of tweezers,clamp as much of the wart as u possibly can lift on it and hold a cigarette lighter to it for a combined 5 to 10 seconds. It'll swell at least 2 to 3 times the size, turns black and disappears! Painful but works like a charm! No discomfort afterwards either. Note fire has to touch the wart completely !!!!!!

The Humble Potato
ains priesty in Rajasthan India -If you have a wart or multiple warts, here's a sure safe remedy to get rid off them. Take a potato slice off a small portion then rub the wart with it for a while, use the same potato three or four times a day each time slicing it so as to use it afresh. If this is done daily for a few days you will find your wart gone!!!!

Tea Tree Oil
Launa in OR -I had a couple of warts on my thumb that I tried everything to remove without success until someone suggested tea tree oil. Just dab some on every morning and night until gone (a few weeks). You may want to cover loosely with a bandaid. This worked great for me and there was no pain. A few drops of tea tree oil in your shampoo can help to prevent head lice as well. Good luck!

Ice It Away !!!
Joe in Milwaukee, WI -I was bothered for a long time with a few warts because they kept growing and even caused pain after awhile because of irritation. I had some back pain one night and remembered some ice-packs that I bought at the dollar store. After putting them on my back to make the pain go away, I thought that I would give this a try on my warts. Just apply the ice-pack directly on the wart/s and this stops all blood circulation and causes the warts to start turning black and shriveling up in a few days. After 4 days, the warts were completely gone and have never returned. In the retail stores they even sell these kits for $20 utilizing liquid ice to freeze the warts off. Why spend all that money ? Get an ice-pack from the dollar store.

Liquid Soap & White Vinegar For Hand Warts
Dave in Midieval England, Iowa -While you read this post, keep in mind that I used to have literally 100+ warts on each hand at any given time for a span of about a year.
And then, I found this "natural cure" just by experimenting. Within a couple of weeks of trying this "technique", every single wart on my hands had vanished.
Required items:
Item 1: Liquid hand soap [the clearish kind, not the milky stuff]
Item 2: Distilled white vinegar
Item 3: Spray bottle
Steps:
Step 1. Lather your hands up with some liquid hand soap & running WARM/HOT water.
Step 2. With the soap & water still on your hands, spray a good quantity of white vinegar on and in the lathered soap.
Step 3. Message the solution into your skin for about 2 to 3 minutes, and then rinse off thoroughly... unless you want your hands to smell like your girlfriend's feet.
Of course I'm not 100% sure this will work for you, but it worked for me... and it worked WITHOUT ANY STUPID DUCT TAPE.

Apple Cider Vinager *works*
Sugar Wolf in USA -Simply applied to area and kept clean, noticed results within 1-2 days, obstruction gone within a week. Note that I may of went a little overkill and cut off the dry skin(depending where you may have your problem) to get to the source. This could cause minor bleeding but obviously more effective.

Clear nail polish
V.G. in WV -This remedy works well on toddlers! It's the same concept as the duct tape, only my 3 year old can't pull it off. Just put a couple of coats of clear nail polish over the wart to 'smother' it, let it dry and reapply it when needed. About a week and no more warts! You can also use super glue!

Duct Tape
Ellen in TX -I've seen duct tape work to permanently remove warts after every other remedy was tried including, Compound W, liquid nitrogen, burning with electric needles, soaking hands and applying physician-prescribed acid. Apparently, duct tape "smothers" the wart and kills the virus that causes it. I got the suggestion off the American Medical Association's website!
