I had persistent warts for a while too. I treated them with the same stuff forever, and it never worked, and the painful stuff the dermatologist used didn't help either. But then one day the treatment worked and the warts were all gone. It's like they decided to go.

When I had warts in grade school through middleschool, I had a large one on my thumb. I picked and piled at it, then suddenly one day it left. Then all the other little fvckers left too. Not that I recommend picking, but once you get the "mother ship" wart, the rest are all "EFF this place, I'm out." No idea if that is helpful to you, though.

Hmm. I can't tell which one is the mothership, though. I get rid of them and then they grow back, so different ones are the biggest one at different times. I always get rid of whichever one is the biggest at the moment.

Posted by mica178[/QUOTE] I think I picked the core right out. I pick everything though. Zits, bug bites, Elliots zits. I can remember the class I was in when I got that suckers core out, too. It was a bloody mess. Sorry, JK, this is probably a prime example of wart talk ruining a life.
My parents used to "ruin" my life on the regular. Now they pretty much just "ruin" my sister's. She threatened to commit suicide because they weren't going to let her go to some music festival in Michigan. And then again the other day because I wouldn't let her in my other sister's room to look for leggings. I effing hate her.
