Although most warts usually go away on their own, many children and parents want them removed. This used to mean several months of applying liquid wart removers or patches to the warts or a trip to your Pediatrician or a dermatologist to get them frozen off.
There are know a number of wart removal kits that you can use at home to remove your child's warts yourself. One such home wart treatment kit is the Wartner Wart Removal System.
What is it and when is it used? This system is used to remove
common, harmless warts. These are skin-colored growths that resemble the head
of cauliflower, and are caused by a virus. They usually appear on the hands
and feet.
The system has two main parts. One is a pressurized spray can that contains
two chemicals, dimethyl ether and propane. The other is a foam applicator that
fits into the end of the spray can. This system can be bought without a prescription.
How does it work? You push the foam applicator into the end
of the spray can. The chemicals from the can enter the foam applicator and become
very cold-about -50 degrees Celsius. You then remove the foam applicator and
hold it on the wart for no more than 20 seconds. The cold from the applicator
kills the virus and the infected skin of the wart.
What will it accomplish? This system will usually kill common,
harmless warts so they disappear in about two weeks. If a wart or part of it
is still there two weeks after you treat it, you may need to treat it again.
When should it not be used? Do not use this system to remove
any skin growths other than common, harmless warts. If you are not sure what
type of growth you have, contact your doctor before using this system. Do not
use this system to remove:
- warts on irritated skin,
- moles or birthmarks, because these may be signs or more dangerous problems
- warts with hair growing from them,
- genital warts, which are warts on the penis or vagina,
- warts on mucous membranes, such as inside the mouth or near the anus,
