Well, first of all, I am not a doctor or anything like that! So, try this at your own risk! :)… But this is something that has worked for me like magic, and has worked for thousands of other people. So I thought of sharing it will all of you!

Well, I had a very small wart on one of my fingers on the left hand. Warts are pretty common and are caused by a virus known as human papillomavirus. They normally appear on the foot, but can appear anywhere on the body. They are not very painful or very harmful etc, but definitely not something that you would like to have on your skin! And……… most of the time, its pretty hard to get rid of them! :)

Now, coming back to my small wart, it had been on my finger for over 2 years growing very slowly - And I tried lots of medications to get rid of it - including tablets, over the counter Salicylic acid and even the Duct tape occlusion therapy!. But nothing seemed to work. All of them just gave temporary relief but no matter what I did, the wart would come back exactly at the same spot within a month or so!

Finally - did some Googling and came across this home remedy - Very simple, Very cheap, and it worked like miracle. Its almost 4 months now, and no signs of the wart that had troubled me for over 2+ years!

So, What is this miracle home remedy? - Well, its Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV).

Where is it available? Most food stores should have it in the vinegar section. I found it at walmart.

How much does it cost? : Well, here in the US a big bottle costs around $2.00. Yes. Thats TWO dollars only!

How to use it?:

1. Get the Apple Cider Vinegar bottle.
2. Have a very small cotton ball - may be half the size of a shirt button (this depends on how big your wart is!).
3. Soak the cotton ball in Apple Cider Vinegar.
4. Place it over the wart.
5. Put and band-aid over it - so that the cotton is in place.
6. It might start to itch after sometime and might be slightly pain. But thats normal. If the pain is unbearable, remove the band-aid, and clean with fresh water.
7. Repeat the above steps for 5 to 6 nights.

For me, since the wart was very small, it just took around 3 nights to work, and eventually, the wart just turned to dark brown and then finally disappeared!!

Lots of other people have reported success with this method!
