Re: Genital warts and Compound W Freeze Off
Wow I didn't know Compound W or anybody else had some kind of freezing product. Or how it would work. I guess it's over the counter?
The last time I had Compound W, it was a light acid that would just burn off the last layer or so of skin on the wart, and after what seemed like a long period of time and the eating away of plenty of non-wart skin too, maybe you would get rid of the wart. Kind of sucked that all the messing around there could actually spread warts if you weren't careful.
By the way, BHT, which you can often see as a preservative in foods, supposedly has quite an effect on killing viruses when taken as capsules. It's effective on herpes, etc. Twinlabs sells it, and other vitamin companies do, too. It also helps keep your kitchen oils from going rancid, so it's not a bad thing to pop a capsule in your bottle of oil. Completely tasteless.
It's not expensive at all. I'd try some if I were you.
Good luck on the rest of your warts. Sounds kinda gutsy, kinda nutty. But warts can make us do nutty things. I've never had the genital kind, but I've torn out quite a few on my hands ones, even though it's a little painful and bloody. Just can't stand 'em. Hate looking at them and worrying that they'll grow and spread.
