Warts , is there a natural way to remove them?

Good Evening ATS.
A quick question as I know theres a whole lot of experience and knowledge on here.
My Stepdaughter, due to become a Teenager has a sizeable Wart on her lower lip.
Her GP is not happy to freeze it off and due to a medical condition we are limited as to what we can apply to it as any application may be ingested.
I've read about Cider Apple Vinegar but does anyone have any other suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

When I was a kid you used to be able to buy tetracycline in a powder form over the counter. Made into a paste it cured just about everything skin related, it seemed. You need a prescription now, and they don't powder anymore, at all. I'd go looking for tetracycline, personally. (I'm not a doctor)

Duct tape works.
Just keep it covered for a month.
Not very practical on the face though.

I usually cut them out but I've only ever had them on my feet and once on my hand, so that's not really much help..

When I was 7 years old, I had a wart on my finger.
My mother and I were in the hardware store in the county seat and the store owner noticed the wart because I had been picking at it and it was bleeding.
He asked me if I wanted rid of it.
I told him that I did, so he reached into the cash register and pulled out a penny. He spit on it and rubbed the penny on the wart.
The wart was gone when I woke up the next morning. Just smooth skin left where the wart had been.
I know it sounds like BS, but it is the truth.

This is her face-go to another Dr, one who is a little more pro-active.

That fails-cut it off. It will bleed bad for a while then slow and stop. I have cut off planters warts-skin tags. It will take 2-3 weeks to heal. Summer vacation is a perfect time to heal. I would not want to be a teenager with a sizable wart on my lip.

My Grandmother used to do that with her Wedding Ring when I had a stye on my eye.

A sound idea but having looked it up the side effects will exacerbate Her condition. Indigestion and photosensitivity are already a problem.

Shes on the Kidney Transplant List. There will be no cutting or bleeding whatsoever.
I did cut verucas off when I was doing Judo however.
Bled overnight and gone within the week.
This is different though.

Tea Tree Oil (Melaleuca Oil) might work..

Youre not supposed to ingest it, but a little bit in the mouth wouldn't hurt..

Just discussing Teatree with the Mrs.
Healed a septic knuckle wound for me years ago. Knuckle popped out, don't ask
We just need to be extra careful with any accidental ingestion.

the dreaded double post

Well, a lip sure is an odd spot to have a wart, and makes the traditional methods I have used not applicable.
I have only one wart, in the eighth grade just above my elbow a few inches. I kept a lighter to a knife and then aplied it to the wart to soften it up. Then I just cut it out with the knife, and reapplied the heated blade to kill off any of the roots. Never had a wart again. My dad told me it was the easiest and quickest way to do, so I did it.

I have also helped a friend a few years ago freeze it off. We used a canned air and turned it upside down. Then we just kept spraying the wart with it to freeze. It came of in pieces with a knife as well. Then he heated a blade to apply to the base for the leftover roots.

Janitorial stores do sell cans of air that freeze stuff also because it works wonder to get stuck on gum off of floors.

But to do any of this to a young ladies lip just seems like blasphemy. Sorry dude, I don't know what else to add.

Keep it covered for 3-4 days constantly the skin will be luminescent white almost see through keep it moist and then cut it off it will be nearly numb as the skin becomes easier to cut from the moisture but make sure you go deep enough or it will come back have used this methed a few times for me and for my 14 year old son he even admits it doesn't really hurt it's more of a you think it's gonna hurt
and good luck

Agreed! Duct tape really does work! My family has gotten rid of them that way as long as I can remember.

i got rid of mine with meditation.

i know that sounds bogus, but its true, i had multiple warts on both my hands for ten years i had tried freezing them off, they regrew quickly, i tried cutting them off with a razor blade, they regrew, i tried pulling the roots out of the gaping wound with pliers to prevent regrowth, they regrew.

i gave up, decided i would just live with warts on my hands for the rest of my life, then one day i was browsing the web and came upon anecdotal stories of meditation and how it felt good etc, so i figured "what the hell" and tried it, all i had intended was to try it, it never crossed my mind that it could have any effect on the warts or anything.

for like 3 or 4 days i would set aside an hour to sit on my bed in the dark and focus my mind on the love i have received in my life, focusing my mind on the realization of what others have done for me, i thought of the time my brother helped me when i broke my wrist, i thought of the time my parents bailed me out of jail and we all cried together, i thought of my sister when she'd babysit me or help me with homework, they were all very old memories but they worked just the same to kindle that feeling of love in me and i just focused on trying to grow that feeling.

eventually my whole body was buzzing like every cell was vibrating, it was the strangest sensation and it felt good, enough that it made me very giggly, but that seemed it was all i got out of the sessions, i only did it for about 4 days and stopped, but everyday after that i kept noticing that my warts were slowly shrinking, at first i couldnt figure out why and thought i must have got my hands on some kind of substance that was causing it but i couldnt figure out what as i hadnt touched anything unusual.

within 10 days the warts ALL of them had shrunk out of existence, i couldnt believe it, i was so #ing happy! it finally clicked in my mind that the meditation must have had something to do with it.

its been 12 years since then, i have not meditated anymore since that once, the warts never regrew.

i have since told many people of this story and not one person has given two #s about my experience, not even my partner of 10 years, never once has any of them even tried it despite this clear experience (to me).

which just goes to show me just cause you havent heard of something working doesnt mean it wont, because people dont give a # about the stories of it working enough to spread them around.

i wish i had known about this method before i froze, cut and ripped the warts, it would have saved me alot of pain.

Here you go! A lovely discussion of warts (regular kind... not std kind)

ATS (same forum!) - Apple cider vinegar gets rid of warts.

Best of luck! ACV works great as a salad dressing with olive oil and seasonings (the best kind!). So you won't waste any if you buy some. Get the natural organic one that looks all cloudy.
