Stubborn verrucas

6 replies

After having stubborn verrucas for 20yrs+...and having treatment at a podiatrist for the last 12months,id like to share something that was recommended as a last resort by my podiatrist, as nothing seemed to work. A schol hard skin remover to grind the verruca down, then apply surgical spirit with a cotton wool ball. 2months and they are gone😁... Give it a try, but stick to it every day. X

Was it an electrical file or a regular file @Fluffs96 ?

Where did you get surgical spirit from? I needed some recently for stain removal and the stuff available at the chemist was an equivalent, rather than actual surgical spirit.

I just got from my local chemist tbh😍
I suppose different things work for different people and maybe with all the professional treatments I had it may have weakened em...but surgical spirit is a cheap method ...hope it works for you all.x
