HEALTHY TRAVEL AND REMEDIES FOR EVERYDAY AILMENTS – THE DUCT TAPE CURE
Placing duct tape (or other tape) over warts to get rid of them is not just an old wives’ tale. A recent study found that placing tape over warts is more effective at eliminating them than standard medical therapy.
the study: Participants who had warts on fingers, palms, heels or soles of the feet were divided into two groups. One group put tape on warts for six days, then soaked the warts and scraped them with emery boards, waited 12 hours and reapplied the tape, repeating the process. The other group had their warts frozen off by a doctor, which is standard therapy.
result: After just two months, 85% of those using the tape had gotten rid of their warts, versus only 60% of those who had received the standard freezing treatment.
