Change morning and night. Supposed to take up to a couple of weeks to work.

I apply it to the area and cover with a band aid. As the tissue sloughs off you can use a pumice stone to smooth out the area. Keep it up for a week or until the wart is gone is gone.

You will have to be careful with this since the oregano is so aggressive. The trick is to ring the skin around the wart with petroleum jelly or a similar protectant, and they apply the essential oil blend (neat) with a toothpick or q-tip for very precise application just on the wart. We have seen some success with this, though it can take a couple of applications per day for several weeks. Other times, its just a matter of days.

" <lcherris Re: Plantar's Warts Hi Dorothy, Lately I have heard from 3 different sources that covering plantars warts with Duct tape will make them disappear. i've been wanting to try this but have not have the opportunity. Appaprantly, if you keep the wart covered, changing the tape as needed, warts (and apparantly skin tags) disappear after about a week. Sounds nuts, but it's inexpensive, can't hurt and worth trying. Please let me know the results.

Tell her to dab some on with a q-tip a few times a day, and it should come out pretty quickly. I had one in college, and this worked really well for me. Best wishes- Lynda *********************************************************************** Take Care and Talk to you soon! Dorothy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
