How to Remove Warts on Hands?

Published in Wart Removal 1 min read

One common way to remove warts on your hands is by using salicylic acid.

Salicylic Acid Treatment

Salicylic acid, available over-the-counter (e.g., Compound W), is a topical medication that can help dissolve warts over time. Here's how to use it effectively:

  1. Prepare the Area: After showering or bathing, pat your skin dry with a towel. Damp skin allows the acid to penetrate more effectively.
  2. Apply the Salicylic Acid: Apply the salicylic acid directly to the wart. Avoid getting it on the surrounding healthy skin.
  3. Allow to Dry: Let the medication dry completely.
  4. Repeat Regularly: Repeat this process daily for several weeks or months, as needed.

It's important to be patient, as this method requires consistent application to see results.
