Hey all, I understand that everyone wants to try different relief from this crappy condition. BUT, I was told by my GP and Pharm. that 17% Salicylic acid is used for wart removal and is much too strong for what we're trying to accomplish. I used 3%, then went up to 6% and was cautioned not to go any higher than this. I used it in gel form all by itself and probably didn't use it long enough to see accurate results. Point is, even when mixed with any other med. be very careful and be under the supervision of a doc. Chemical burn and worse can result!
