Getting rid of planters warts should be your number one priority when you've been dealt one of those monsters.
Just imagine the thoughts that would run through your cute date's head if s/he happened to see that unsightly thing? I can promise they'd probably never return your phone calls.
So, while we're on the subject, why don't I tell you how to get rid of it.
You have many options, certain ones obviously being better than others.
Here's what you can choose between: * Freezing it: This can be done by a doctor or you can go to your local drug store and pick up Dr Scholl's Freeze Away.
It works by applying a Q-tip-like swab with liquid nitrogen onto the affected area.
This reaction is supposed to kill the wart, but from what I've read, it has a 60% success rate.
* Burning it: I also heard that burning a wart off can be very effective.
You take a match head, light it, and blow it out, then immediately apply the match head to the wart.
The only obvious danger with this is you run the risk of burning yourself.
* Applying salicylic acid: This acid will peel away layers of your skin, taking part of the wart away with it.
This isn't as popular anymore seeing as how it doesn't actually kill the virus.
* Using duct tape: Put a piece of duct tape over the wart and keep it on for about a week, then soak the affected area in warm water, and with a nail file, gently rub the wart.
After about 8 weeks, your wart should be gone!
