As an experiment I rubbed silver oxide on my arm for a month. (Its the
stuff that collects when you run the dregs of a batch through a coffee
filter). I developed a nice black fake 'bruise'. But it dissappeared
within a day or 2 of stopping. Its like getting an ink stain. You cant
wash it off, but in a day or two you realise its disappeared.

Indelible ink and silver nitrate permanently stains the outer layers of
skin.
Those layers aren't permananent.
It's highly unlikely that you can get silver oxide [the black stuff]
deep enough to make a tattoo without using a needle.
I'd say there a near zero chance of "agyria" from that route.

Debbie,
I'd be very careful with that! Especially if it's in a cosmetically
important part of the body, such as hands or face...
I would expect that concentration of silver to pose a serious
risk of
tatooing the area with localized agyria.
I have no experience in this regard, but the idea definitely
worries
me, especially concerning a child.
Repeated applications of regular CS plus DMSO on gauze pads
ought to be
effective against warts, without the risk of permanent staining
of the
skin.
Be well,
Mike D.
