Cantharidin is another way that works for many, where some blistering liquid (originally from a blister beetle, but I think its synthetic now) is put on the wart, causing HUGE blisters that take off many layers of skin at once, and often the wart with it. But it really sucks that first few days.


Interesting. Never heard about this. Did an MD do this treatment? If yes, in which country?


My guess: Canada?

I knew a nurse that would smuggle bottles of it back to the USA from Canada.

It has a fascinating history :)
