Has anyone used this on plantar warts or common warts? It was suggested for me to try this, but I'd like to hear if it worked for anyone else.

I used it for eczema and it helped a little bit. If i were you i would try to find a distribuitor that would give you a sample to test it for a few days and see how it works for you. I love doTERRA oils, but some of them work for some people, while for others not so much when used for the same purpose. Sorry i cannot be of more help!

No, I haven't used it on warts but would sure be worth a try. Worst thing that could happen is if it doesn't work. The Modern Essentials book by doTerra lists Melaleuca or On Guard, Frankincense or Oregano for this purpose. Hope it helps.

My daughter had a plantar wart on her foot and we used Oregano from doTERRA on it. The wart cleared up very quickly.

Mariposa: The suggested protocol is the following oils or a blend of some or all. When I blend oils I put them in the glass viles with the roller balls (available on Amazon.com). Oils & Blends: Basil, Birch, Cypress, Deep Blue, Helichrysum, Frankincense, Lemongrass, Peppermint

I have not tried it on warts. I use it on my eczema type skin problem on my face and it helps.

Not an expert but I would say Oregon and melaleuca are a good mix. You can check out this web page for further advice ....http://www.everythingessential.me

Lemon Essential Oil worked on my plantar warts! It took 6 weeks. I applied every morning and every night!

Unfortunately, I had the same results. I talked with a physician and learned that the only effective socks (of course, very expensive) had more of a silver lining. I also consider the spray to be expensive and not very long lasting.

I wish I knew, Tom. I did purchase one of these devices. It helps in the morning, when I apply it to the sides and back of my heel (I have a heel spur poking into my Achilles tendon, and I'm anticipating surgery for that in January). It does seem to warm and relax those areas somewhat. But you don't use a conducting gel with it. I'm guessing that the terms for these retail devices are not applied as stringently as one would hope. I wish you good luck, if you decide to use it. From my own experience, I would say it's decent, though not outstanding, help for small areas. And it takes about 15 minutes to get an effect. So, I am an impatient person and don't always want to wait... Take care! I wish I knew, Tom. I did purchase one of these devices.

Hi, it didn't really work for me. For the cost...I'd expected much more. I've found that high concentration topical vitamin C and hyaluronic acid work in tandem really well! I hope this is helpful!

no,It will not. I have not found anything topical that will. they are easily cut off by your care giver--they bleed sometime, so its best they are removed by a dr--they are not like warts ,that can sometimes be removed topically.This product;tho it has some tea tree oil, there is not much in it.Sorry :) Hope this answeres your question.

It is not designed for warts, warts are viral oregano oil works well on warts.

Is this something you want to add to your sock aid? The one shown comes with it and I take it off right away as it doesn't work well with nylon hosiery for me. Perhaps you could find something at a hardware store that has an adhesive backing where you could cut a round shape to stick to your Sock Aid, Mole skin comes to mind with the adhesive back. Get that at the drug store. Hope this helps.

This product did not work for me. My doctor said that nail fungus can not be cured. My advice is to contact your own doctor and find out the same information as I just provided here.

I've only used it for feet. Initial use dries out the skin and you can feel a little itchy, but it really works and that is awesome. I suggest using it for about a week every day, then every other day or every three days. I have forgotten to wash off hands, and it really dried them, so maybe the skin on hands is too sensitive (or at least, mine was). I forget what the package says and you could try it if it's recommended for hands, but just be prepared for possible super dry skin there, and really be careful not to rub your eyes or touch face. Gloves after application may be in order. Good luck! I'm still grateful to hydrosal for this product and the fact that I wear sandals comfortably now in the summer : ).

I've used it. I don't see improvement but it seems to help the toe from getting worse. If the toe is at a sharp angle towards other toes, I can't see it helping at all. I would ask my GP for an opinion as he would be dealing with toe problems from a variety of cases.

Made by the same company that makes products for skin. I add this oil to regular lotion and have had no problems. It is not recommended for this so I am not recommending it. The oil for use as pesticide (works great when mixed with water, dish soap, and cinnamon oil, by the way. Find a recipe online.) costs a lot less. Is it the same? I do not know. Has worked for me though some people find the oil somewhat irritating on skin.

I'm trying to find the answer to this myself. I have been using Germ Fighter and have gotten two viruses already in Jan using it. I have a compromised immune system so it is hard to tell if it is helping. a couple on the bottoms of my feet everyday.A friend of mine is sending me a sample of doTerra equlivilant to sample and I will compare.

When I used it, I just applied a layer over the toenails of a cleaned foot. Give it a few minutes to dry, then you can put your socks on.I do not use it anymore and changed to plain vinegar per my podiatrist recommendation. It is a year long process, and you need to hang in there. Quick fixes if advertised are clearly bogus...would not happen.

i enjoy using germ fighter synergy neat ---- and also i add it to some apricot kernel carrier oil and put it on my skin ---for cold sores, using a cotton swab and apply some of the synergy to the sores that way directly, i use also lavender essential oil and tea tree essential oil in the same ways-- directly and in apricot oil ----i have not mixed it with water, but it is a way to try it, make up a small amount with water in a mister and see if it works. thieves also makes it in a household spray.

I am going to try this cream with silcone heel socks- which works great to reduce the pain from standing on crakced heels. Let us know if you tried it!

I used it directly on my sons wart and covered with a bandage...the next morning the wart was black and with in two days had fallen off. He had no discomfort but it did irritate the skin around the wart where the oil touched but nothing that bothered him.

You mean 'on' knees as in a wart? I'm guessing this stuff works great on warts. If I can use it on my face full strength, it should work for that. Instructions say to dilute it b4 using tho, but i didnt. I put it on needed area, let it dry, peel it off and re-apply as much as I could tolerate the burn. It eats away at the skin layer by layer. Some areas may turn brown temporarily (when too many layers come off) but will peel after several days. I'm no pro on this acid stuff- just sharing my use with it. B careful w/ moles and if ur not sure what it is, see a skin specialist. Hope this helps.Good luck&#128522;
