I'm guessing that this thing on my thumb is a wart, and I was told by a friend that if I wrap my finger in duct tape, that the wart will go away (for about a week). Would this actually work?

Its gross... but I always self operate.


Either with a scalpal and no pain killers... or my teeth. But its bloody... and it hurts so good. Then pour peroxide or alcohol right on it.


Ohhhhhhhh yeeeeeaaaa...

Not really a full blown wart. Just looks like a pimple on my finger. Can't explain it, but you can't really see it.

Duct tape on a wart? That's a new one. Why would duct tape be any different than regular tape?
