WartStick Maximum Strength Salicylic Acid Solid-Stick Common and Plantar Wart Remover 0.2 Oz

I bought this for my daughter to treat a stubborn plantar wart on her foot, and it is finally doing the trick. If you have tried those liquid drops or freezing kits without success, give this a shot. Because it is maximum strength (40% Salicylic Acid), it really packs the punch needed for those deeper, tougher warts. The solid-stick applicator makes it so much easier to apply precisely to the spot without making a mess or getting the high-strength acid on the healthy skin around it. For anyone using this, just know that it definitely gets worse before it gets better. The area started to look a bit rough as the medication worked its way down, but that is how you know it is actually reaching the root. After a consistent application, the wart is finally clearing up and the skin is healing beautifully. It is a small stick, but a little goes a long way. It has been a lifesaver for my daughter’s foot, and I am so glad we found a solution that actually delivers on its claims. 5 stars for a product that actually works!

This is awesome! I've had this work countless times without anything coming back. This is magic in a stick! Buy it, don't wait. This is the best at-home solution to have - not even painful! Just apply this and put a Band-Aid on, and you will notice how your wart goes down. Super easy and quick results. This is the only store-bought thing that will work.

I like this product, but there are a few issues. The product says that the spot should be treated, then covered with a bandage. It you're treating one small spot, that's not an issue. If you have several spots that are bigger, prepare to go through a ton of bandages. This product uses Salicylic acid to get rid of warts. It essentially makes the upper layers of skin slough much more quickly. For tougher warts, this can take quite awhile to work on the wart, but the skin around the wart can get pretty sensitive before the wart is gone. If you stop too soon, the wart just comes back. Again, more bandages. My PA suggested this.

...maybe not how you expect. NOTE: _This is not medical advice, I am simply retelling an experience with a product. Please consult a physician for medical advice_ Perhaps there are different types of warts out there, but for the case we were dealing with here, this product worked- but in an unexpected way. We assumed the product was like a type of pimple-cream: put it on the affected area as directed, and VIOLA! But not in our case. After 6 weeks of use (about half the recommended time), it was evidence that the wax stick [not sure if it's classified as wax, but that's what I'm calling it here] was just deteriorating the skin around the wart/fungus, and not the actual wart itself. We've never dealt with this before, so we kept applying the wax at least daily, with reports of discomfort (it's literally melting away the skin [turns the skin white, as the wax erodes the dermal layers. The spent wax and skin need cleaned at least twice per day.) In short, because the wax seemed to be taking a very long time, with very little 'direct' effect, a lot of cleaning effort and pain; we decided to use a set of hemostats and pull the root of the wart out. In brief, the wax stick helped erode the top layers of skin to allow us to pull out the root of the wart. This erosion over the course of weeks yielded a small but tolerable pain (versus just cutting directly to the root). Once the skin was soft and white, it was easier to separate the tube of the wart from the sidewall, by twisting in clockwise and counter-clockwise circles/spirals; eventually prying it free from its base. Very painful process I have not been able to find a higher concentration of commercial salicylic acid without having to get into mild chemistry. Perhaps other people have a different type of problem or different experience, but this worked for us. It does cause pain if you rub acid on your foot and walk around on it. We kept everything clean, and after some time of applying product, we let the skin around it heal, and then began application again. We would dress the area with a non-stick bandage and tape. During one of the healing stages (6-8 weeks in), we used a scalpel (Exact-o actually/thank you) to carefully cut the skin free around the white stalk, and then used a slightly duller edge to 'pry' around the edges enough to get ahold of the stalk with the hemostats. At this point, we had to be very careful so as to not break the white stem (it broke once for us, and took a week plus to grow back strong enough to pull on). We very carefully attached the hemostat and locked them. Then, using precise gentle force- pull, turn and twist the stalk. The wart will be attached to the skin it's growing through, so we had to very carefully get the sides free. Because this is a delicate process, it took us over an hour. Using constant, but miniscule torque, we tore the sidewalls of the stalk, from the sidewalls of the skin (both cylindrical). At the base is a rough, root connection to the skin and because we had completely and cleanly separated the sidewall, the base root just popped out. We actually applied more wax to the hole ensure the root was "cleaned out" (but painfully increased closure/healing time) The healing time for a cylindrical wound took us longer time to recover from than a linear cut. During this time, we applied an antibacterial salve and dressed with non-stick bandage and tape. We kept everything clean with rubbing alcohol while working. We were warned not to break pieces of the wart off, as the new pieces may form a new, full, wart. We checked out the area twice daily- cleaning, and inspecting for new growth until the base of the skin was healed completely. [As an aside, we feel this originated from going outdoors in a sub/tropical area with lots of ground fungi- barefoot] So that was our experience, your experience may vary. Don't expect to just put this product on and make your wart go away magically. As noted from the other reviews, it can be painful depending on the user's tolerance level. It will take some effort to remove, and this product can help. 5-stars

Product works well, but it is a very small portion for the cost.

Works unbelievably fast! This stuff is amazing! This literally took less than a week to get rid of a small wart I had on my finger for over a year. Nothing else that I tried worked at all. I was very skeptical about this but figured I had nothing to lose, but the wart. I applied it twice a day and covered it with a Band-Aid. Your skin will peel, but don’t panic. It will look completely normal by the next day. Absolutely do not hesitate to purchase this!

Very effective. It solved a problem that I struggled to find a solution for.

Bought this for an actively growing wart on finger. Ten days later, it has fallen down. Fantastic product. Used it along with a normal band aid.

I have one very small wart, since it’s very small I don’t want to use my wart patch. I tried the stick and dried fast after 3 days

Bought it for my mom let’s see if it’s works
