and they really really really HURT.
I had all 3 Ds's with me when the doc froze them and can't for the life of me remember what he said I should do if/when the blister appears.


Does any know??

I'm sure he didn't say pop them but he did say something....

I had it done a while back, it is bloody painful isn't it?!
You are meant to leave the blisters & they eventually burst (yuk!) taking the wart with it!

I ended up covering mine with a plaster I think, & on removing the plaster I realised the blister had burst all over it!

bloodyhell, if I'd known it would hurt this much I would have kept them!

doesn't help that I burnt the same finger while cooking the kids dinner

Ouch! Poor you!!

Yes, they don't warn you just how horribly painful the process is, do they??
It didn't work on one of my warts either & I had to go along a few months later & have it cut out!
Must admit to finding that process a lot easier than the freezing!!

one blister on now the size and shape of a frozen pea...a big frozen pea!

Bloody hell...it looks absolutley rank too!
