Understand how to freeze a wart. Over-the-counter cold kits use dimethyl ether and propane to freeze the wart and the tissue around the wart. Realize that the wart will not instantly fall off after treatment. It may take several treatments and up to 3 or 4 weeks before the wart gradually disappears.
A few studies have examined duct tape for warts, but the results have been conflicting. Nonetheless, this approach is inexpensive and doesnât hurt. Others who would like to try this should cut a piece of duct tape the same size as the wart. Place the duct tape on the wart and leave it in place for a week. Then remove the tape, soak the wart in warm water and file it down with an emery board. The next day, put a fresh piece of duct tape on the wart. Repeat the procedure for up to two months.
