Is it OK to pluck a wart??

no, dont pick at it... warts are generally caused by a viral infection, and picking them could cause the infection to spread... the best thing to do is to get some treatment from the chemist, or go see a dermatologist, and he can use liquid nitrogen to freeze it, and then it will fall off when the skin underneath heals... i had a small 1 on the side of my knee, and my dr used nitrogen to freeze it, and in a few weeks it fell off on its own, and the skin underneath was hardly marked...

You dont need to burn them or get them surgically removed. There is a freezing porocedure which is really painless but discomforting for about half a day but well well well worth it. I dont know the cost today but check with your doc or GP.\n\nI used to have really horrible disgusting warts near my fingernails and they really put people off. Someone suggested this procedure of freezing and it didnt hurt and I would recommend it to anyone. That was about 9 years ago and have been happy since.

My boss had some on his underarms.  His doctor cut them off with some scissors.  He said some hurt & others didn't as much. One bled.  You shouldn't tie it off...it could become infected.  A doctor would do it in a clean enviorment with clean instruments.  They healed just like a normal little cut.

I wouldn't try it, if I were you,dear!Granted some home remedies may work for you.Although depending on how bad they are,you maybe taking a Chance!Anyhow,I would really just go and see the doctor!He will be able to remove them much more quickly and efficiently!Plus,if you remove them yourself,and do not remove all of it.You take the chance of having them grow back!And possibly even bigger!Not to mention the pain!OUCH!The doctor can remove them by freezing them!Or by burning them off.There are many other ways the doctor can do it.Plus,he can numb you!So you will not be in as much pain!I just think if you want it done right,then see a physician!I know a young girl who had warts everywhere.On her fingers,hands,legs,and face!I mean,it was really bad!Well,anyway she had to go to the doctor,and he did a really good job of removing all of them!Of course it is totally up to you.However,I would look into it.It really would be the best way to get rid of them permanently!Good-Luck to you!And I wish you well!

I have a wart, and i'm trying to get rid of it.  I don't care for clear away, but try the freezing method

Well, at pharmacies they have wart removers, but I haven't had much luck with them.  The wart is caused by a virus so eventually it will go away.  But if you can't stand them anymore, taking garlic pills works well (garlic boosts immunity among other things).  I've also heard that leaving duct tape on a wart for awhile gets rid of them, but as warts do best in warm sweaty areas I don't know how helpful that would be...

Go to your local chemist's shop. They should have something effective against warts.

if you cut your wart off totally, no it wont come back but if a peice of it is stil their it will usually grow back, your not supposed to cut warts off though so don't hurt yourself more if you've already tried, let the wound heal and if it comes back get that compound w stuff it really works and then it wont ever come back.

bring it to a dermatologist. the wart is located in your face so any DIY remedy might result in a nasty scar.

If you don't have visible warts, then the chance of spreading the virus to someone else is very low.\n\nThere are loads of types of wart virus, and only 2 or 3 that are dangerous to women. Even then, it is thought that they only cause cancer if they are caught while the cervix is undergoing changes - most commonly during adolescence.\n\nYou're right to see a physician - they will confirm if it is warts you have (lots of blokes have nobbly bits on their willies which are glands, but they worry they are warts), and can treat. There are several treatment options, but should all be carried out by a physician - DO NOT try to treat them yourself with wart treatment from a pharmacy - this is one place you don't want to risk burning.\n\nOnce the warts are gone, and your partner definitely doesn't have warts either (they can be harder to spot in women, so it might be a good idea for her to be checked for them), then you should be fine to have sex.\n\nHand warts, can be spread to the genitals, so treat hand warts in both yourself and your partner as well.\n\nHope you get rid of them soon - and good on your for caring about your partner enough to ask this question.

I read an article that putting a small piece of duct tape on the wart will eventually get rid of it.  It is supposed to activate your body to fight the wart, and the result of this method is less scars.

I think that is what is done to remove genital warts.

It's acidic.  It doesn't kill it. The virus lays dormant.  This may sound strange but duct tape works best.  Cut a circle of duct tape slightly larger than the wart and change the duct tape every 5 days (or if it falls off)  until the wart is gone.  You'll be amazed!

Hello! Well, you can go and see a doctor and they can use liquid nitrogen to freeze your wart. That's what they do in the hospitals.

A few hairs are common. You can pluck them off if you want, but it would be more cosmetic and wouldnt harm anything. It might sting a bit when you pluck, but other than that... no problems. Its up to you what you want to do...
