Friday Favorites: Removing Warts with Duct Tape
Channel: NutritionFacts.org
Date: 2024-04-05

Duct tape beat out cryotherapy (freezing) and ten other treatments for removal of warts in a randomized, controlled, head-to-head trial. Why isn’t it standard practice?

This includes the first and second videos in a three-part series on duct tape for wart removal. Check out the last one: Which Type of Duct Tape Is Best for Wart Removal? (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/which-type-of-duct-tape-is-best-for-wart-removal).

I never heard of using duct tape for warts until I was researching other dermatological remedies, like the ones found in Benzoyl Peroxide vs. Tea Tree Oil for Acne (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/benzoyl-peroxide-vs-tea-tree-oil-for-acne/), Does Tea Tree Oil Work for Nail Fungus? (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/does-tea-tree-oil-work-for-nail-fungus/), and Benefits of Tea Tree Oil for Warts & Cold Sores (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/benefits-of-tea-tree-oil-for-warts-and-cold-sores/).
