Why This Remedy Works
đ Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV)
ACV contains acetic acid, which penetrates the tissue of the wart or skin tag, breaking it down from the inside. It also creates an acidic environment that inhibits the growth of viruses and bacteria.
đ§ Baking Soda
Baking soda acts as a natural exfoliant and pH balancer. It helps remove dead skin cells, reduces irritation, and thickens the paste so it can stay on the affected area longer.
đż Tea Tree Oil
Tea tree oil is a potent antiviral, antifungal, and antimicrobial agent. It targets the root cause of warts (often viruses like HPV), calms inflammation, and dries out the growth naturally.
Ingredients
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
(Optional) Cotton pads and bandages or medical tape
2â3 drops tea tree oil
Instructions
Mix the Ingredients
In a small bowl, combine the apple cider vinegar and baking soda. Stir until it forms a thick paste. Then add the tea tree oil and mix again.
Apply to the Affected Area
Use a cotton swab or your fingertip to apply a small amount of the paste directly to the wart or skin tag.
Cover It (Optional)
For best results, place a cotton pad over the area and secure it with a bandage or medical tape to keep the paste in place overnight.
Leave On Overnight
Let the mixture sit on the area overnight. In the morning, rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
Repeat Daily
Repeat this process once per day until the wart or skin tag dries up and falls off naturally. This may take several days to a couple of weeks depending on the size and location.
