Freezing (done by an md)...cutting...burning with strong H2O2.... all just made them grow fatter and happier. Then I took milk thistle, for something else entirely, and they started disapppearing so fast you could almost watch it happening.
I had a bad reaction to the milk thistle and stopped taking it, but they were already substantially reduced. And then one day I realized they were gone completely...possibly from something else I too internally. Now, after returning home from a trip to a hot springs, I find I have three baby plantars on one foot. One is in a sensitive spot and hurts. I soaked my feet in vinegar one night...no change. (I also noticed my feet were smelling... which they usually do not...so thought I might have picked up a fungus...) I was just going to write in to the list for suggestions.... and here you are already discussing it. Well, doesn't sound like cs is very helpful, and the only new idea is the soldering iron. The thing is...a plantars wart is almost flat. There is a kind of callous, but the "seed" or black part is far under the skin. When I tried to cut them out, it seemed no matter how much flesh I cut, they were still there. And the more they are disturbed the more they grow. Also, the seem to be quite contagious... moving to other parts of the body. I would strongly suggest from experience not to "fool" with them without gloves, unless you want them on your hands. So...any more ideas? ~^^V^^~ ~^^V^^~ -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
