Warts & Verrucas
« on: 09/05/2007 19:46:23 »
My little girl who is 8, has 5 warts on her fingers and in the last few weeks has developed 3 verrucas on her feet. I've tried all of the over the counter stuff.  Does anyone know of an alternative cure???

Duct tape is reported as working , not just on the web but by someone whom I know- she says it's reliable. OK, that's scarcely better than an "old wives tale"; except that she's a GP.
I should probably add that I'm currently trying it; I will let you know the outcome.
