Does Duct Tape Remove Warts?Really now, does duct tape remove warts or is it just a myth?  In
our pharmacy, many moms ask us this familiar question, “Does duct tape
remove warts?” We get this question about twice weekly. Why use duct
tape?First, it is cheap. Second, it's easy. Third, it doesn't hurt. Is it too good to be true? Are there any scientific studies actually done to prove this? The surprising answer is YES. We are not surprised that many parents will try this. Actually, we don’t discourage this because there are no side effects or dangers (except the gooey sticky glue that’s left behind when you peel the duct tape off!). Scientific Studies Scientist
first thought that perhaps the tape or glue stimulates and boosts the
immune system in that area to kill off the wart virus naturally. The
first report published in 2002 showed using duct tape was more
effective than cryotherapy (freezing therapy). The news media read this and proclaimed that a home remedy was found for getting rid of warts! Unfortunately, more recent better designed studies done in 2006 and 2007 showed that it doesn’t work. But the problem was that in the new studies, researchers used clear duct tape instead which had a difference type of glue! Different glue, different results! Perhaps Imagination Played a Part? Science
has proven that imagination and imagery can also affect our immune
system. Believing that it works may enhance the body’s ability to kill
off the wart. Why not call upon the child’s or teenager’s imagination to fight off the wart virus? There’s no risk or downside of doing this and it can only help. What are Some Natural Remedies for Getting Rid of Warts? What
