Usar TCA a 80% para verrugas comuns não faz nada

Hello,

I've had a wart on my pinky finger for years and years now (longer than I can remember). I've tried just about everything, except cauterization (which I've had done on a different hand wart, and it worked). Before going that route again, I wanted to try using Trichloroacetic Acid, which a lot of people said have worked for them. I'll give you guys a step-by-step of what I did to maybe see why nothing has happened. I bought a 4 ml vial of 100% TCA, which I diluted to 80% with .8 ml of distilled water. I washed my hands with natural, plain soap (plant based + no added dyes, fragrances), and then prepped the wart with an alcohol pad and spread petroleum jelly around the outside of the wart with a q-tip to protect the skin. I used another q-tip to dip into the TCA and then pressed it onto the wart gently. I noticed I didn't feel anything, so I proceeded to do it again. I ended up putting on TCA to the point where there was a visible layer of liquid resting on top of the wart, but I still didn't feel anything, and the wart didn't turn white! Do you think I accidentally got some petroleum jelly on the wart, preventing the TCA from getting through? The wart is a little thick, so I tried it on a smaller, thinner wart I have, but still did not feel or see anything happening. I am at a loss. Any help is appreciated. Thank you very much.

Olá, usei ácido monocloroacético 50% em verrugas plantares. Basta uma gota para destruir completamente o tecido da verruga. Após a aplicação, começou a queimar levemente. Em um ou dois dias, a verruga se transformou em algo parecido com uma espinha, com o tecido da verruga liquefeito dentro. Após estourar e drenar a "espinha", a ferida começou a cicatrizar.

Tenho dúvidas de que o líquido que você obteve seja realmente ácido tricloroacético na concentração mencionada. Para começar, o ácido tricloroacético 100% é um pó branco.

Você conseguiu se livrar da verruga?

I've never tried TCA but heard that this treatment might take 6 to 10 weeks for warts to go away. Also, trichloroacetic acid is a dangerous chemical, so it should be applied only by a doctor. If this treatment does not work for you, consider a natural treatment. You can search FDA natural creams for warts and found Vidarox. I used it to remove my genital wart and got desired results. I haven't tried it for common warts but I saw some reviews saying it works well for all types of warts. You can ask its company or consult a doctor for further information.
