Warts and apple cider vinegar, now I have a white kneehole !

Following a thread on here where someone applied ACV to a piece of cotton wool, sellotaped in place, left alone and the wart came off in two weeks I thought I'd give it a try.
I have a small (5mm) hard wart that has been on my knee for over 8 years, I've tried every over the counter remedy, freezing it, duct tape, asking GP (big no from them as it's now a cosmetic procedure)
So 2 weeks ago I started the ACV. Stung a tiny bit but not that bad. Left it alone for 3 days at a time, removed and replaced "dressing".
On Saturday I took off the cotton wool and this thing came out, like a white lump, looked down and there was a 1cm wide hole in my knee, and then it started to bleed like mad!!
Now I have a kneehole Blush that is seemingly filled with white skin, all round the hole is scabby and horrible. It's a good few millimetres deep!
I don't know if the wart is actually gone, how can I tell? I think I burned the surrounding skin!

picklemewalnuts · 03/03/2020 10:14

Someone on another thread said their paperclip had gone. 😱

Funtcase95 · 03/03/2020 10:15

I carved a veruca out once. I'd been doing the file and dab method for so long I'd lost the will to live, and it hurt. So I attacked it with nail scissors, and could actually see the deformed cells of the veruca. It bled like billyo but never came back.

@MNHQ this is an emergency! The klaxon has been sounded but we have no pics!

Please help!

This is the biggest tease ever!

I wish I had a knee wart 🙁

slipperywhensparticus · 03/03/2020 11:05

I never knew you could get a knee wart?

Hi @pinkrocker please try signing out and signing in again. Under the text window there's a paperclip icon for attachments.

Click on it then follow the directions to choose an image from file, or use your device to take a photo. Flowers

Thanks soniamumsnet Flowers

Just don't get rid of them until im home from work if you post!

Last time an op put them up (on a different thread) then within the hour asked mnhq to remove them so I missed them Sad
