Q. I read about someone who wanted to know how to get rid of plantar warts. My grandson had one on his foot for quite some time and was going to a doctor for treatment.
His grandpa had him put a piece of raw bacon fat on the wart overnight and in a couple of nights it was gone. To try this, use a fresh piece of bacon each night and fasten it on with a bandage.
A. Plantar warts (warts on the soles of the feet) are notoriously hard to treat. Readers have suggested duct tape, castor oil and hot water soaks. Bacon fat is a new one for our collection.
