    A doctor once told me that after a treatment put a band aid on it and it will lessen the amount of treatments needed. So I did it and I swear it worked.

      Oh yeah it’s to stop it getting air. I actually soaked small cotton balls in acetone (nail polish remover), put that on the warts and then a bandaid, but it didn’t do much. So I caved and got more salicylic acid today. I used nail varnish to protect the normal skin around it, and then the acid on the warts. It’s worked in the past, so I’m confident it will be enough :). But the Dr is right! A bandaid after or with treatment is always best! A non-breathable one is better too, to again, stop the wart from getting air.

      Maybe my body is telling me to embrace my inner witch 😂

        Who are the witches? Where do they come from? Maybe your best friend’s grandmother was one. Witches were wise, wise women they say. There’s a little witch in every woman today. Though I have to admit I don’t much care for the Bonnie Lockhart version of this song.

          My mum straight up told me it ran in our family and not to mess with it.

          I dunno. There have been a few odd things despite me being a bit skeptical but she was probably right about leaving it alone

            There’s quite a few of us famtrad witches about. Not to be confused with the candles/crystals/ceremonies posers. Can be hard to detect, until you do and you wonder why you ever wondered about that person.

              My mum is a candle/crystals/Doreen Virtue guidance cards “psychic” (read: schizophrenic 😂). I stay wellllll away from that!

              Other than admiring minerals as super pretty! I’m very much a magpie when it comes to minerals!
