For about 13 years I have had this small bump
on the palm of my hand. I'd at times cut it
off with a razor blade but in time it would
eventually grow back. I just learned to live
with it as it did not affect anything I did.
At times it would itch and that's about it.

Tonight I was reading messages from a Yahoo group
about warts and I got to wondering if what was
on my palm might be a wart. I had a wart on my
thumb when I was younger and this did not look
like that.

But anyways I wanted to share with you what home
remedies you could use for removing warts.
There is a duct tape method you can google
because I don't remember what that one was.
I couldn't imagine trying to put duct tape on
my palm.
So the other two I read about was to apply
either super glue or clear nail polish on the
wart(s) up to two weeks or longer. They
are supposed to eventually smother the wart
and cause it to fall off or gradually flake off.
People who have tried it say it does not
grow back.
So tonight I am using the super glue method
to see if it works. Will let you know
how this works out.
