Has anybody tried this stuff --> Wartner

Wartner wart remover.

Does it really work? Does it work better than the acid-based removers? I've been trying to use the OTC acid-based ones for years and they never fully get rid of warts. After treatment with a stronger acid at the doctors office, I managed to get rid of the ones on my hands, but now they're showing up on my feet, and are rather uncomfortable.

if they are on your feet they are prolly plantar's warts so you need to get some site specific stuff. check any drugstore.

Actually, the ones that were on my hands were plantars too. The ones on my feet are slightly smaller though.

Yes, it works. Yes, it is better than acid. Freezing warts is what dermatologists do most often.

There are tricks to it though. Often, if you follow the instructions, you do not get a good freeze. But be careful! It is possible to freeze too deeply and cause damage to the deep layers of the skin if you freeze too deeply.

It helps if you've had professional freezing treatments before and know what it should look and feel like.

BTW, Compound W is making a "Freeze Off" copy of Wartner now... it's better made and cheaper.
