Vurrucas And Warts

Viruses are responsible for both Verrucas and Warts. Warts look like little lumps and although they can grow anywhere, they are most common on the  fingers and hands. Verrucas are foot warts but instead of growing outwards, they grow inwards.

They can be extremely painful. You can spot them by a tell -tale black spot in the centre of the painful area. Warts will often go away without help, but in many cases nothing seems to shift them.

There are several essential oils which can be a real boon to sufferers of verrucas and warts, and although I always use the formula AVI many good reports have been given for these:

Verruca And Wart Essential oils
Lemon-Cypress-Lavender
When treating a child under twelve years of age for verrucas or warts it is crucial to dilute the essential oils beforehand. You can use any oil above singly or in combination, diluted in cider vinegar or follow my suggestion.

When treating a child under twelve years of age for vurrucas or warts it is crucial to dilute the essential oils beforehand. You can use any oil above singly or in combination, diluted in cider vinegar or follow my suggestion. Put all three ingredients in a clean bottle and shake well.

If you are using Dermatect concentrate, dilute 5 drops to each dessertspoon of vinegar. Using a cotton -wool bud apply twice a day to the infected area only, avoiding the surrounding skin.

The essential oils can be applied neat if the child is over twelve. Again, use a cotton-wool bud and be careful not to get the oil on the uninfected skin. Apply twice a day
