could you try duct tape? not sure if it works on hands but it works on verrucas. Also maybe nail varnish? And I read good things about sudocrem, as it has zinc in it which is good for preventing and treating warts / verrucas.

Just dab it on and leave to dry?

My son had a massive one on his finger and the doc prescribed this. Got rid of it in a few days.

I read on here to take vitamin C - my ds had warts on his fingers that had been there for ages and wouldn't shift - soon after starting daily vitamin C they went. May just be a coincidence but worth a try!!

Thuja worked really well on my stubborn wart. I don’t believe in homeopathy but it worked!

My mother once went to the doctor for a wart and (I kid you not) he told her to rub ham on it and then bury the ham in the garden.

Total hocus pocus but the wart went.
