Has anyone ever had warts?

I have a few on on my hands that I’m trying to get rid of but they always come back. They don’t really bother me but it would be nice to get rid of them :)

Yes. I got rid of a horrific wart outbreak by using sachets of Aldara which I had prescribed for me and DS when he was three.

I had to see a consultant, but you could see if GP would prescribe.

My eldest had them. Tried duct tape and banana peel! Eventually they just went away tbh although it took a few years.

Posalfilin ointment is the best thing I have found. You only need apply a small amount in the centre of each wart and cover with a plaster. Do this daily and it kills the wart off. Only takes a week or two.
