Wart Treatments FAQ in Winchester, VA

How do you get rid of a wart the fastest?

To treat a wart, soak it for 10 to 15 minutes (you can do this in the shower or bath), file away the dead warty skin with an emery board or pumice stone, and apply the salicylic acid. Do this once or twice a day for 12 weeks.

Why do people get warts?
