Obviously not as important as the main cause but I wonder if a similar thing could be used to treat warts. I had a wart once and successfully got rid of it by applying a trick I read on the internet which is putting a little square of duct tape on it. Surprisingly it really worked. The Wikipedia page used to list the method with dubious citations and said that one theory for why it worked was that the duct tape stimulated the immune system and caused it to attack the wart when it normally wouldn't.
- ams6110 9y agoThere may be something to it, as most folk remedies do have an unscientific history of successes, but it definitely doesn't work on all warts or for all people.
- johntb86 9y agoApparently they can now inject candida antigen into warts, which is supposed to trigger the immune system to attack them.
