Home Up Sunscreen Wart Treatment Retin A Elimite

 

  1. Soak wart in warm water for 10 to 15 minutes. Take out and pat dry. 

  2. Pare down softened skin gently with either emery board or pumice stone until all softened tissue is removed. 

  3. Apply wart medication (Occulusal-HP, Occlusal, Duofilm, Duoplant) to wart. 

  4. Allow medication to dry completely. It will usually turn a white, chalky color when completely dry. 

  5. Cover wart with a piece of Blenderm tape, to be left on until the next time the wart is treated. 

  6. Continue this treatment nightly. More than likely, you will come to a point in time when the skin surrounding the wart is irritated. When this occurs, wart treatment should be discontinued for several days, until the surrounding skin has recovered. Then reinstitute wart treatment, as given above. You may find that you are only able to tolerate this several nights on, several nights off, or on an every other night basis. 

  7. You will find the wart will gradually decrease in size. If small enough at the time of your next appointment, a decision will be made to either continue this form of wart treatment or to institute additional treatment modalities
