Yes, you can heal a wart with a Band-Aid, but not in the way you would think. If you use a traditional type of Band-Aid (with the pad in the center), do not place the pad over the wart, but cover the wart with the sticky part of the Band-Aid.

More effective than a Band-Aid, however, is Scotch tape. Believe it or not if, you cover a wart with cellotape and leave it on for several days, the wart will drop off or dissolve.

You may have noticed that if you ever leave a bandage on too long, the skin under the bandage goes white and loose. This is what happens to the wart, and then it disappears.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
