For common warts, look for a 17 percent salicylic acid solution. These products (Compound W, Dr. Scholl's Clear Away Wart Remover, others) are usually used daily, often for a few weeks. For best results, soak your wart in warm water for a few minutes before applying the product.

Most warts require 1 to 4 treatments, with 1 to 3 weeks between each treatment. There are over-the-counter products to freeze warts. These products are less powerful than liquid nitrogen. They may work for some warts, but it may work better to have your doctor freeze the warts.

Applying liquid nitrogen to the wart causes a little discomfort. To completely remove a wart, the treatments may be needed every 1 to 3 weeks for a total of 2 to 4 times. If no improvement is noted, your doctor may recommend another type of treatment.

Some of the most effective and popular medical treatments for wart removal include:

• Cantharidin.
• Cryotherapy.
• Electrosurgery/Curettage.
• Excision.
• Laser treatment.
• Chemical peels.
• Bleomycin.
• Immunotherapy.

Cryosurgery usually cures 50% to 70% of warts after 3 or 4 treatments. Cryotherapy can remove genital warts but it cannot cure them. Those types of warts are likely to come back. Warts on other parts of your body may or may not return.

Most warts require 1 to 4 treatments, with 1 to 3 weeks between each treatment. There are over-the-counter products to freeze warts. These products are less powerful than liquid nitrogen. They may work for some warts, but it may work better to have your doctor freeze the warts.

The freezing is uncomfortable and might cause a stinging sensation, but it is not unbearable, and the paint is brief. The wart will begin to turn white; this is a sign that the skin cells are dying. A blister may also form at the site of the wart.
