Home Remedy for Removing a Wart


For the last year or so, Alexander has been wearing a wart on his hand. We decided to do an experiment and see if we could get rid of it without having to visit the doctor's office. Twice a day for about three weeks, we have dabbed a cotton ball with Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar and secured it on Alexander's wart with a band-aid. Slowly, the wart has shrunk until now it is only a speck. Pretty cool, huh?

  1. Hmmm, that's pretty interesting. Did you google that, or just decide to use cider vinegar?

  3. Neat trick! To bad Stacey didn't know about that one when she was a teenager!!

    Mallory kept getting head lice in school and I would shampoo it with the lice shampoo. Her poor head and hair would get so dry and it still wasn't working. I put mayo all over her hair and then put a plastic bag around her hair and kept it there for at least 2 hours. The lice problem went away and her hair was so soft again!

  5. I hadn't heard of using cider vinegar. I had a wart once when I was young too. I took a homeopathic by Newton's and I had to take several bottles over a period of time, but it worked!
