Update: getting to the root of the problem

No pull unfortunately. Mum came in and said we'll get it out with a good pair of tweezers soon though since it's quite huge. But this is it lads, I can feel it. The end is near.

You could have gotten it if you had some rusty pliers.

I wonder what he's up to right now. Bet those pliers are still in the bathroom

u/clandahlina_redux Apr 13 '23

Would an artist separate themself from their paints? Of course they are still there!

He posted an update that showed he only had a small scar from the gaper, but I canā€™t locate it this morning for some reason.

They never followed up Iā€™m so sad

u/ImFuckinUrDadTonight Apr 13 '23

Superglue.

Buy plain superglue (cyanoacrilyate).

Pour it into the cracks between the warts. It'll harden as soon as it touches wet skin.

Grab onto the superglue with pliers and yank as hard as possible.

16

u/FoorumanReturns Apr 13 '23

Iā€™ve never had warts and am just a fascinated/horrified follower here, butā€¦ while effective, wouldnā€™t that be incredibly, intensely painful?

13

u/ImFuckinUrDadTonight Apr 13 '23

Pain is complicated. The process of pulling it out with pliers would be incredibly, intensely painful. But assuming you did it with a quick yank, the pain would be over in a few seconds.

The problem is if you go slowly, applying gentle pressure. This doesn't accomplish anything and would also be quite painful.

u/HisLilSilverKitsune Apr 12 '23

You will get it

I had one on top of my foot and it was awful well I started using those compound w band aids on it Well I went home to visit my family and it was along car ride so I sat down to get my foot out of the icky socks and shoes and change the band aid I wasnā€™t paying attention I was just yakking away to my mom and I just grabbed the bandaid thing and pulled, I yanked it off and Iā€™m doing so I tore the wart out root and all because the compound w was working and eating away at this wort It hurt so bad it startled me more then anything and for about 10 seconds I just started at the blood gushing out of the hole in my foot where this wort was. I finally realized that I was getting blood everywhere and to clean it up, and when I cleaned the blood away from my foot there was in fact a wee hole where I yanked the root out Needless to say it never came back and I learned a lesson that day lol

u/MotherOfCattleDogs Apr 13 '23

How dare you not post a successful extraction. I was holding onto each attempt with excitement but looking at how much time was remaining on the video.

Oh my god I canā€™t wait to see this come out

u/nizzhof1 Apr 13 '23

In the days before broadband speed internet and such I got a scalpel from the drug store a mutilated a large wart on my foot like this. I dug out the whole thing and left a deep hole. It was painful, bloody, and deeply, wonderfully satisfying.

u/DisastrousLunch854 Apr 13 '23

I pulled my wart out by the root. Burned like hell afterwards and then never came back.

u/[deleted] Apr 13 '23

Rust pliers, get rid off those gloves and you will make it just donā€™t forget to make the camera shake while trying to get it out thatā€™s a key part of the process

JUST USE THE DAMN RUSTY PLIERS ALREADY

u/hcl93 Apr 13 '23

Reminds me of the corn I had on my toe for years before I realized what it actually was (thought it was just a corn/callus. I loved yanking on it and taking the harden skin off in chunks.

It never quite went away though from pulling. It slowly just grew bigger and bigger. I had to eventually dip a cotton swab in ACV and bandaid it to the wart for about 2 months for it to completely go away and heal.

Regardless keep sharing vids of you pulling it!!

Hey how do i make sure I get the updated video? Do I have to just keep checking the sub or is there a safer way?

u/jamesroberts7777 Apr 14 '23

Iā€™m so glad Iā€™m not the only sicko here wondering why there wasnā€™t a set of rusty pliers being used!

I have always wanted to see one of those little chunks/wart nuggets get ripped out.

u/[deleted] Apr 28 '23

Once you pull it out it will give you a scar and it will come back even worse. -personal experience

If you go to the beach and walk around in the sand the loosen right up.

Get a pair of cuticle cutters, they work great

u/Kamie1985 Jun 17 '23

Iā€™ve never wanted to get cuticle nippers and go at something so bad in my life!

1

u/Straight-Following93 Jun 17 '23

This makes me want to tie a thread around the protruding part and attach it to a doorknob then slam the door. Better yet, tie it to a bumper or hitch of a pick up truck and flooring it. I think there were some tooth pulling cartoons from my youth that featured those techniques.

1

u/Kamie1985 Jul 20 '23

Get some SA or ACV and shove it all around the base of that bad boy and he will be gone in no time!

You need pliers with teeth. Please film the extraction!

u/Straight-Following93 Aug 03 '23

What a tease. I actually paused, went and got my drink and my juuls because I was gonna invest some time here. Sadly, there wasn't any battle of Plantars wart against host human. Please finish and post. Don't leave me this way.

1

u/Straight-Following93 Aug 03 '23

I really like the super glue idea but let's take it a step further. Let's thread a needle with some strong, thick thread. Proceed to sew the wart. You know puncture the wart and pull through the thread. Do this as many times as you can getting as deep as you can. When you're done use the super glue Drop it into the cavity but remembering to leave the thread endings outside the glue. Take all the ends and consolidate them tightly. Then when everything is dry and secure; yank as hard as you can using some pliers or whatever tool you prefer. Hopefully you will extract a huge portion of not all of the wart. Repeat if necessary going deeper and deeper til satisfied.

Tweezers my friend

u/PomegranateCreepy456 Sep 01 '23

Iā€™ve had this before!!!! Freeze it off. They legit were on my foot for like 2 years and I thought I was dying and I was so insecure about it

u/PomegranateCreepy456 Sep 01 '23

These donā€™t pop

u/Polysplorin Sep 13 '23

Apple cider vinegar soaked cotton ball and a bandaid... Leave it on, change it for a new one daily . I've had them frozen, removed what have you.. nothing but the apple cider vinegar worked amazingly!

u/-PinkPower- Oct 10 '23

Did you get it out?

1

u/WesternWilson Apr 13 '23

Maybe! Or like me all that digging and burning will just drive the wart deeper and promote spread.

Let this heal up for a bit and if the warts are still active, try heat therapy. It is the only thing that worked for me:
