self inflict wounds to remove warts

[overtyped]

For too long we have suffered under the warts. Those of us who pursue beauty will strike the warts off, leaving a deep gash 10 times more damaging than the wart, but can be healed in other ways, leaving a tasteful scar and not an ugly wart! Right clicking it in the wounds menu should work?

To be fair, i used to have a bigass nasty wart on my knee as a kid, i got rid of it one day by lifting a suitcase i thought was heavy, but was light. Ripped that wart out root and all.

Don't try you bypass ancient roots you weasel.
I am on to you.
Some wounds MUST stay root only.

This isn't one of those wounds. It's caused when people who didn't know toad butter would leave them with a perma wound.

thats not how warts work. the human papillomavirus cannot be "cured" and wart removal is temporary at best. best case scenario, over time the amount in your body will drop to an undetectable level, but wherever you got an infection will always have warts come back in the case of wart causing strains. in fact, your idea would most likely be extremely unhealthy as the scar tissue could cause the wart to root in deeper and spread the infection further, while doing little to nothing to prevent transmission of said wart.

Hmm I cut around a wart on the top of my hand with a razor, then yanked it out with pliers. 18 years later its still gone and the scar is barely visible now.

Would love it if you could cut it away with a sharp object, and have some chance that it goes away, and some risk that it simply returns, worse than before.

Well, i have nothing resembling a wart anymore, no scar either, and it's been 15 years since the suitcase incident., that wart was a real whopper too, a real havenlike wart.

The wart and root i pulled out was like 2 inches long.

congratulations, you didnt bother reading my entire post. you do indeed have a wart in that same spot. its underneath the scar tissue which will still transmit said wart, though those on the hands have a very low rate of transmission if i remember correctly.

the same to you. you still have the wart and you still have HPV. said wart is hidden beneath a scar now. also if you pulled out a 2 inch root from your knee you would have had to be rushed to the hospital from the massive amount of blood youd be losing. you were correct in that the removal of a wart via self surgery should cause massive damage, because it does. but it still dosent remove the DNA virus from your system, nor does it actually remove the wart. especially in your case where you say you just pulled it out (by lifting a suitcase? what? did you tie a thread around it and drop the suitcase or something? that dosent make any sense at all). there would be massive amounts of the root still embedded around the sides of the wound. it was probably back before the scar tissue even formed. and it would be literally impossible for you to rip a 2 inch long wart root from your body, or any wart root for that matter, and not leave a scar. youre talking about removing not only all of your surface skin but the underlying muscle and connective tissue as well. that dose not heal without scarring in any case, and if the wart were to NOT return, said scar would look like a belly button.
