Warts. Natural wart removal tipps

@Marjory Wildcraft oh, I keep fingers crossed that this experiment is a success. I am just thinking loud: would it not be easier to put onion only on the wart and plaster over it. Does the skin of your hand not suffer from being so long in a latex glove?

Hi @jolanta.wittib well just finished night 4 of this 5 night experiment. So far, no change at all.
I am wondering why I am approaching this from the external when I'm pretty sure it is an internal thing. I think the wart itself is like a mushroom - it's only the small bit that pops out from a vast underground network.
But anyway, yes, in the morning my hand looks like it aged 100 years! LOL. And Im sleeping with this onion smell all night. But I wanted to be sure the wart was covered with onion. I might try a smaller bit with tape (or plaster) as you suggest.

@Marjory Wildcraft I think warts might be both: an internal and an external problem (if a problem at all). Externally received and supported by internal conditions. I think that old warts might be more resistant. They might feel at home and know how to adapt to the changing environment, e.g. sleeping with a coat of onion 😉😊

I have heard that it is supposed to be a great cancer fighter, especially in combination with burdock. Praise God for that! I love both those plants.

I will try 5hat on my granddaughter. She has one that will not go away

Well, the update is after five nights of onion poultice, the wart looks pretty comfortable where it is. Yes, an older, well established little guy. I don't recall when it came. I definitely had it during the 2009 filming of "Grow Your Own Groceries".
Maybe it came after I had children! Along with the insanity...

@Marjory Wildcraft 🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁
so the onions did not work. Then one can still try garlic, banana peels, dandelion latex, celandine latex... there is still hope that natural remedies could work...

That wasn't it, I finally found it - it was bloodroot - often used in black salve. A bit controversial but I didn't have an issue using it.

@stephanie447 is it Sanguinaria canadensis, bloodroot?
we have a most respected herb which has a German name “blutwurzel” which could be translated as blood root. But it is tormentil Potentilla erecta.

Using goldenseal and echinacea tincture on the wart worked for me.
So did equal parts castor oil, glycerin and lanolin on it (from a Sally Freeman book).
Also, baking soda + hydrogen peroxide works for some warts. This's also good for my phytophotodermatitis.
If my wart hurt putting cayenne tinture/oil helped a lot.

Yes, sanguinaria canadensis is the "bloodroot" used in black salve.
