That really works? What if it is on your feet? Will it still work? :D

Fluffbug95,

I hope they're gone soon. Yes, they're definitely contagious and such a nuisance.

Thanks for saying the freezing really hurts. I asked the doctor if it would and he laughed and said no. I wanted him to numb my fingers, but he wouldn't. Oh my, they started to hurt immediately! I had a 45 minute drive to get home, but before I could even leave the town the doctor's office was in, I had to stop and buy some Tylenol. I opened the bottle before I got to the checkout to take some; I've never done that before or since. I had to buy a few other things, trying to take my mind off the pain and give the Tylenol a chance to work before I drove home, and I had to push the cart around the store with my forearms. I felt like such a baby!

I'm going to try the Corn Huskers lotion; the wart I have now is very small and I'd like to get rid of it before it grows. Sure hope those on your feet are gone soon!

I hope they are gone soon! When I get in the car to head home or back to school. I take my shoes off and hold my feet because they are so cold! I am going to try the Corn Huskers lotion too.

My Dear, whatever you do, protect your feet. I've messed around for years and I'm practically crippled. Please seek medical attention. And if you do use the milkweed, as I've known lots of people to do, wash your hands and instruments that you use. Milkweed is poisonous if you ingest it. Hope you get relief soon. My feet will hurt until they take them off or I push up daisies.
