Medical Therapy
Many sufferers of HPV warts report success using organic Apple Cider Vinegar (acidity 5%). A paper towel soaked in ACV is applied onto the infected areas, and can be secured with duct tape. Those reporting the best results leave the soaked paper towel on for hours, or even all night during sleep. The result is that the wart turns bright white in color, and after several treatments, begins to turn black and die, eventually peeling off.[2] Many users report success mixing the ACV with small amounts of garlic and Tea Tree Oil as well when preparing the solution. The ACV can also be swallowed orally when mixed with water. Because the ACV can irritate sensitive skin area, some users report alternating treatments with a paper towel soaked in castor oil, which moisturizes skin while assisting in the removal of HPV warts.
