I once battled a pretty serious spreading wart on my hand (not periungual). Tried every OTC treatment available without success. Once I used the below protocol it was gone in 7-10 days. The wart will swell from soaking up the apple cider vinegar and become rather sensitive while it kills the wart all the way down to the root.

This is from google, and says it too can be used for treating periungual warts:

To treat a periungual wart with Apple cider vinegar you can:

  1. Mix two parts ACV with one part water
  2. Soak a cotton ball in the mixture
  3. Apply the cotton ball to the wart
  4. Cover with a bandage or medical tape
  5. Leave on overnight
  6. Rinse off in the morning Repeat daily

(Stop using ACV if it causes excessive burning or irritation. You should also avoid applying ACV to open wounds.)

Okay I had one of these and nothing over the counter was working. Others may advise against this but I’m telling you the stubborn wart was gone practically overnight. Use apple cider vinegar or tea tree oil on the wart. I used straight up tea tree. Then, cover the tea tree/vinegar doused wart with a thin slice of garlic. Then cover that with a bandaid. Hope this helps!
