| Submitted at 2010-07-03 04:10:06 from 96.240.143.36 | I dont know how ANY of you guys can do the Apple Cider Vinegar treatment thing..... I went to try it tonight to help get rid of my plantar warts. But I only had it on for 2 hours then I took it off because it is TOOOOOOOOOOO painful. I been in some serious pain for about 30 minutes now from it. I would NOT and I will NOT tell anyone to do this treatment. Everyone says it works, but never says really how painful it is. It's been extremely painful for me! I would rather have the surgery again over trying this Apple Cider Vinegar nonsense.

So my aunt told me to try cleaning the area really well and then cutting an acorn in half and putting the juice for the acorn directly on the wart and then covering it with duct tape changing and cleaning it twice a day for about 3-4 days and you will instantly see results of the planter wart going away. Just be careful because the acorn will stain anything (including your foot) but the stain will go away within a few days of not applying it anymore. Just try it for a few days and see the results. I would love to know if you get any relief from this method!

I keep a cotton ball on it with ACV and taped it to my foot with duct tape. I was fed up and wanted the pain gone. Here is want I did, I got a gallon of White Vinegar and pored 1/2 of it home foot massage [I think any pan you can put your foot in would work as long as the Vinegar is up to almost the ankle]. I then got a needle and used a lighter to sterilize it. After 5 minutes in the vinegar, I stuck the needle in the wart till I hit bottom [felt is stabbing me]. I then moved the top of the needle around in a circle to tear a small hole there. I repeated this in multiple places on the wart so the vinegar could get inside the wart. I did this ever 5 to 10 minutes for an hour keeping my foot in the vinegar except for the needling. My foot felt hot at some point but that OK. After an hour I took my foot out, dried it and then coated the wart with Gorilla glue. It has been a week and I have no pain. I am just waiting for the Gorilla glue to fall off now. Wow try it!!!
PS... I do think the ACV softened the wart but you may just want to do 1.5 hours in white Vinegar instead if you have not done the ACV.

| Submitted by Jean (PA) at 2010-05-19 19:48:42 from 68.37.167.134 | Don't listen to anyone who says to treat plantar warts at home. Trust me. I dealt with one for over six weeks. It was excruciating - like scissors stuck in the bottom of my foot. I tried some of these 'home' remedies, but to no avail. I am trooper; I can handle pain. But this was ridiculous. I couldn't walk, let alone do my daily runs. Finally, I went to the doctor. One needle later, he removed the wart, and I was pain free. Of course, the cut had to heal, but two days of that healing vs. all the trouble and pain of trying to get rid of the wart on my own was completely worth it. I don't know who the hell these people are with the home remedies, but they are simply no match to the quick and efficient podiatrist who made me whole again! So beware Internet fools - home remedies when it comes to plantar warts means days and weeks of needless pain. Go to the doctor!

| Submitted by Rennie at 2010-05-13 07:35:49 from 58.178.101.87 | I came across this site almost 4 months ago and decided to give the ACV treatment a go. I had been suffering with a large plantar wart on my right big toe for over 6 years. I had it frozen a couple of times with little effect. I also took the drastic measure of surgery in the hope that this would do the trick. Nope, didn't work either. This option was a painful and costly exercise. So, after reading the articles on this web site I drove to my local supermarket and purchased a bottle of ACV, a roll of medical tape and a bag of cotton wool (the make-up remover balls). I soaked my poor foot in hot water for about 10 minutes (to soften the skin, then dried my foot and got out my trusty corn file and filed down the wart as much as possible. I then soaked the cotton ball in ACV (but you can really use any type of vinegar - I did a couple of times and it still worked)and applied it directly on the wart and secured it with the surgical tape. I did this every night before I went to bed.The soaking, the filing and the rest. And yes, my toe DID initially throb with discomfort at night and it DID initially turn into a white puffy mound, but most importantly, the horrible thing started to shrink and within a fortnight it was half its original size. After 2 weeks, I only filed the wart every second night to expose the little 'roots' and I did away with the pre-soaking altogether at this time also. All in all it took a total of 6-8 weeks to completely rid myself of the wart I did hobble around a little every morning after removing the vinegar-soaked ball, but by 10am each day, the discomfort was gone. I experienced no pain (overnight or the following morning) after the first 2 weeks of treatment. It was worth it, believe me! I can't believe podiatrists charge an arm and a leg for a non-permanent solution, yet vinegar which costs a couple of dollars can stop the virus in its tracks. I even did a preventative overnight treatment a couple of weeks later just to make sure the wart was well and truly gone. This web site is a Godsend! Thanks!!!

I suffer from back problems & my Doctor told me to use the foot patches that remove toxins from your Body. I put thwm on one for two nights & noticed on the second night that my warts that I had for years were gone. I had atleast 10 of them one my foot for so long & they all went away. You can see small circles where each wart was though. But I no longer feel any pain or pinching & its been about 6mos & they didn't come back

| Submitted by Kim at 2010-05-05 16:34:05 from 68.87.42.110 | I suffered with a Planters Wart for 7 months. I used the recommened over the counter wart remover and went to the Podiatrist 2x's a month to have it 'frozen'. Nothing worked. I decided to do nothing for about three weeks. After three weeks, I found spray peroxide and used it (sprayed and wrapped my foot up). AMazingly, my wart was gone in 2 days. I have no pain whatsoever! I highly recommend trying peroxide. To me it was a miracle!!

I've had one on and off for 5 years... been in and out of dermatologists and podiatrists.... no luck with ANY of the treatments... did chemo, freezing, burning, scraping, acid...no luck went ahead and started the Apple cidar vinegar tonight.... it isn't even on an open 'hole' and it kinda stinks already? i couldn't imagine the pain some of you were talking about when they get big and gapping 'holes'...

| Submitted at 2010-03-30 18:44:12 from 76.236.104.244 | I am trying to the apple vinegar method with my warts. I have tried everything for the past 7 years, all of the over the counter methods, freezing, burning, and even have had them cut out 6 times. The last time they cut them out they took out about a quarter size of warts and it was DEEP. The pain from all of these was horrible. I am amazed at how quickly the apple venegar is working, yes it hurts but nothing compared to having a huge gaping hole in your foot. We will see if they go away but they already are not as sore to walk on.

| Submitted by Keith Bradbury at 2010-03-23 10:41:51 from 64.179.49.143 | I had a plantar wart on my foot for over 30 years and tried everything (Doctor's attempted burning and freezing, as well as scyllic acid). Nothing worked. It felt like I was walking on a pebble some days, a nail on others.
Finally, I put a thin layer of Gorilla Glue over the wart. Gorilla Glue adheres to skin, is waterproof, and suffocates the wart. Within 3 days, this 30 year wart had shrunk considerably, to the point that I cannot see it anymore after I peeled off the glue scab. It's cheap, it's easy, and it WORKS! Gorilla Glue is available in just about ANY hardware store or hardware section.
