Liquid nitrogen.  I had a wart for a couple of years in my teens.  My GP kept telling me to buy over the counter remedies like Compound W but nothing worked or if it did, the wart would be back in a matter of days/weeks.  After trying everything, I asked the pharmacist what they recommended.  He promptly went mental that my GP hadn't referred me to the wart clinic (especially as the wart was on my face and you shouldn't use any of those treatments on your face).  He told me to insist on a referral.  

Got my referral, doctor came in with a thermos of dry ice, stuck in a long cotton swab, touched it to my wart, less than 2 weeks later it was gone.  I never needed a follow up appointment and the wart never came back.  Not sure if that's an option for wart removal where you are but might be worth looking into.

>Anyone know of a quick way of getting rid of a wart on a finger. The over-the-counter stuff seems to take too long (Compound W = weeks/months). I am about to try the "duct tape" cure but even that can take several weeks, it seems. And I can't afford to pay a clinic or hospital to zap it away. I figured with musicians (and otherwise digitally competent) being on here, y'all may have quicker ways, say, if you were on tour and you got a wart.
