Duct Tape and Wart Removal

73 Risposte a “Duct Tape and Wart Removal”

1. Only Dr. Greger would have a vid on duct tape for medical procedures; I love you man.

   Now how about videos for drugs that are no more effective than duct tape…as well as the medical uses of vise grip pliers…. The latter could be titled "The Doctor's Office in Your Tool Box."

2. 3RD for the first time . Hello from Trinidad.

3. How to get rid of moles?

4. It’s fascinating how effective barebones procedures can be

5. You’ve got to be ducking kidding me?

6. I used to have 24 warts on one hand and almost 20 on the other. my girl friend had overactive sweat glands so we would both hold hands despite the fact we were both self concious about our hands. after a few months all my wartz were gone. ive heard band aids and duct tape work my theory is that sweat and suffocation play a critical role in wart removal. All anecdotal evidence tho

7. Even if you don´t have warts duct tape is always handy to have around!

8. Duct tape + banana peel. It WORKS! Try adding a little baking soda with water and turn it into a paste, apply that first, cover with the banana peel and then duct tape it.

   I got rid of a nasty plantar wart that was the size of a quarter doing that.

9. hmmm, duct tape… is there anything it can't do?

10. Eh, what?

11. Apple Cider Vinegar + bandaid. Scrape. Repeat. You're welcome.

12. I had plantar warts on my foot for over 20 years. Tried the otc liquid which was intensely painful (wart must have been on a nerve). Finally read about duct tape and gave it a try. A few weeks later, all warts were gone for good. Haven’t had any more since.

13. I got rid of very stubborn wart by using a bandaid. Suffocation is what works.

14. How about cherry angioma? Would the tape work?

15. I had one for like 10 years and tried all types of things that the dermatologist recommended, freezing and scraping, acid etc. no effect and very painfull……. 2 months of ducttape and this 10 year warts gone forever

16. well i once had a wart and liquid nitrogen freezing got rid of it just fine without any side effects…

17. Thank you for the videos. Wish I had seen that before going through 10 weeks of cryotherapy for my foot warts, losing almost 3 hundred bucks only to see the warts come back with a vengeance 😂

18. So does cutting off oxygen to the surface of the wart make it die.

    I have used to wart medicine in combination with duct tape with great success. Didn’t think you could use the tape alone.

19. My husband swears by it.I know, anecdotal evidence, but still… What's it gonna hurt to try?

20. This is a sticky subject.

21. I guess it really depends on how well the patients adhere to the duct tape prescription.

22. My money's on duct tape and it's vegan too

23. kidney wart plant and leave the leaf on the wart like on feet with a tape or something it will get destroyed completely natural and was safe for me 👍🏻

24. How does it work?

25. So the daily dozen doesn't cure or reverse viral infections?

26. This is so silly. You don't have to go to the doctor for any of these treatments. There's been a Dr. Scholl's cryo kit available OTC for years. I used it to freeze a wart on my toe. The Advantage is that it's quicker than any patch-type treatment. And of Course there is liquid and patches under the Compound W brand.

27. I thought keratolysis with salicylic acid + occlusion with tape was standard procedure

28. I never heard of using duct tape for warts until I was researching other dermatological remedies, like the ones found in Benzoyl Peroxide vs. Tea Tree Oil for Acne (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRjtlE-JjfE), Does Tea Tree Oil Work for Nail Fungus? (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oA3OgD5cVH8), and Benefits of Tea Tree Oil for Warts & Cold Sores (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFHOTq8PKfU).

29. Banana peels work on warts. Wrapping the inside of banana peel on a wart for a week gets rid of warts. I did the treatment on my daughter.

30. Will do a control trial on my hand and will find out!

31. I have used this method to great success. I recommend one layer running one direction and a second layer running another like plywood especially around joints. The tape retains its integrity and keeps out air better this way. The point seems to be to make the skin white, keeping the air out and the moisture in. The results can be stinky and I recommend continuous treatment for a week. Taking off old tape in the shower and quickly replacing it before the skin dries.

32. Ahhhhh! Another cliffhanger…..I can't take it!!! Thanks for doing the research and posting!

33. Paid by 3M

34. Amazing.

35. Lol, this is quite amusing!

36. Which duct tape was this specifically?

37. I worked with a lady who was covered in warts and I’m pretty sure I got one from her on my finger. I was about to buy a wart remover, but I guess I should use duct tape! I would leave it alone because it’s small but I worry it will spread. The picture he showed doesn’t look like warts though? The mouth looked like cold sores, I thought warts were different

38. I learned about using duct tape for warts in 1981 when I was working at the Whiteman AFB Hospital. The doctors there told patients to use it for wart treatment. It's a military hospital and it did work the majority of the time.

39. I have a wart on each of my thumbs, at the exact same place, and got them frozen off so often I actually enjoyed the pain, the warts are so deep that I had a hole on each of my hands almost to the bone, and the wart virus still didn't die. Now they don't look like warts, they look like dry flaking skin, but up close you can see afew tiny little black dots. I tried duct tape as I sleep, but when I take the tape off my skin is completely white, and moist like when you go swimming, and it looks so visible and so gross I can't use the tape bc the next day I can't leave the house it looks so bad. So I'm screwed as my only solution is thumb amputation haha.It sucks to live like this I've had for 15 years. Damb.

40. starving the wart of oxygen. I have been through this with my kids. Dr……then duct tape. Even a piece of garlic on the wart and use duct tape on top. Kills the sucker!

41. I had very stubborn plantar warts for several years which were totally resistant to any treatment my podiatrist offered. He did several very painful cryotherapy attempts where I was on crutches for several days after each attempt. They were extremely sensitive and bothersome. My doctor gave up, saying he could offer no other therapy. I read about duct tape as an option, tried it and was wart free in two weeks! I removed the tape with every shower, rubbed any dead skin off and reapplied the tape so it was airtight. I fully recommend this as a treatment.

42. Why and how does this work?
    When you become a QUACK Doc?

43. Great topic, will try this. Could you do a video on money addiction? Imho money is a highly addictive substance, has anyone ever studied that? It seems to fit the DSM's 7 categories for addiction. People unknowingly addicted to money act in ways detrimental to the health and wellbeing of others, of our society, and our planet. Good video.

44. Love your work Dr Gregor ✌🏽☮️👏

45. time to put duct tape on my balls

46. So interesting, I've removed 2 warts with the duct tape method, the first was started using vinigar but I ran out of cotton swabs half way 😅 although both times the wart came off after puss formed underneath and was painful to walk on, i wonder if that's because I kept the tape on constantly for the whole time 🤔 will be curious to see what happens with this third wart doing it as they do in the study

47. hi, what kind of duct tape can you use for that? when do you change the duct tape or you just leave it on? thx cheers

48. Actually, any tape will work. I used to have some worts on my fingers and I got rid of all of them with medical tape..

49. I just drowned a wart in vinegar a couple days ago… I can't wait to try duct tape next! I mean no… I can definitely wait!

50. I developed a tiny wart on my plantar region (foot) and tried the duct tape method. In my case, duct tape isn't for ductwork, nor is it for wart removal. It became worse and worse over the 3 years I worked at it until I finally went to a dermatologist to have it frozen off. That took 4 more years. It got bigger, moved further toward my toes. He tried injections with candida to "stimulate my immune system," which were useless. It finally was removed when it became so dislodged deep under the skin from the cryonics that he plucked it out when cutting off dead tissue. It hurt horribly, but I was so used to the pain in that area and walked with a limp for years that it didn't matter. It was gone 7 years after it first appeared. Don't mess around with duct tape. Get it frozen off if its on a foot. You will save yourself years of hell.

51. Dr. Greger finds the most obscure and interesting studies. LOL

52. oh you tease

53. I've had a stubborn wart for 4 years now. Here's what worked for me:
    1. Duct tape – after a few days of constantly using this, the wart is destroyed and skin grows back. But the wart isn't dead, you really have to keep wearing it for many months.
    2. Compound W – Put on, let dry, put duct tape over it. This destroys the wart even harder. The only issue is I've scared myself. The acid burrowed a dent into my finger where the wart was and isn't growing back to normal.

    One tip is to use the duct tape to get your hand oil off first, then a new piece of duct tape on the dry part of skin where the wart is. This keeps the duct tape on your finger longer. Use scissors to cut intricate shapes by folding the duct tape in on itself to cut easily. It really sucks having one on the tip of my finger.

54. Duck tape or no duck tape that is the question.

55. dr.evil xD

56. Plantar warts are highly contagious, easily passed to other family members in the shower or when barefoot, I tried many other treatments including cryotherapy! The only way I got rid of mine was using duct tape, more than a little circle of it, but a good 2 inch splat, this cured them on two different occasions (several years apart), and I said NO to having it 'cut out'.

57. its so unfair! please stop separating videos to multiple parts!!! or at least name them part 1 and so on. So that people will watch them together after they are all out.

58. o the suspense…

59. Dr. Greger can you respond to the Op Ed in the Wall Street Journal on Too Much Salt? A family member sent it to me and I responded as best I could, but the video most closely related to it on your site was from 2016. Any new info? Article: https://www.wsj.com/articles/are-you-getting-too-much-salt-in-your-diet-probably-not-11559507235?mod=searchresults&page=1&pos=2

60. It's sad that the go-to technique for medical professionals with dealing with most health issues is "kill it with fire" (cryotherapy, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, acid, etc). I'm grateful that we have these techniques and that they're generally effective, but I wish more research would be put into how these viruses/mutations actually work or how we can enhance the immune system to deal with them, rather then what poisons can be used to kill them (which generally hurt the body in the process).

61. I used duct tape on my daughter and it worked! I took awhile but worked! Basically it was choking the watt of o2

62. However the WART VIRUS that causes the manifestation of the wart mushrooms, is still at large, hiding in the liver. PARASITE CLEANSE HERBS & RIFE RESONANCE THERAPY is still necessary (along with a vegan lifestyle).

63. My partner picked up a plantar wart from surfing on our local beach that is also a dog beach so lots of flora/fauna in the water. He endured TWO painful cryo treatments with no success. I googled alternative cures found duct tape and we figured it couldn't make things worse. A few weeks later and the wart was gone. I'd like to understand WHY it worked though. I've speculated maybe it's some compound in the glue, maybe the anaerobic environment precludes reproduction? who knows but it works and it's cheap!

64. Hi Dr. I like to eat nuts, cranberries or dark chocolate with my green tea. Does tea affect absorption of any nutrients. Thankyou

65. DMSO and bandaids. Plus colloidal silver works too.

66. Nail polish works wonders, as does ACV.

67. Had them preteen. Put clear nail polish on and they disappeared after awhile and never came back.

68. I had warts once and I tried duct tapes(because obviously they were so cheap), and got no effect, and ultimately had to opt for surgery after weeks of excruciating pain during walking.
    It was quite fast and effective, but also costly. I didn't got warts again.

69. When I was younger, I took a scalpel to my palm to cut out a deep wart. Ouch.

70. My daughter had a sizeable wart on the outer area of her palm. Duct tape did the trick! I have one on the joint of my toe and it is currently covered with a piece of duct tape.

71. Wonder about my vessellated mole and my skin tag? Hmmmm…..

72. I can never thank you enough Dr Kunle for all your services, I tested Negative after taking your medication, you are truly a man of honor and words

73. I love this channel!
