Q. I have a cure for warts. As crazy as it sounds, it absolutely works. Rub the wart on the yellow exterior of a banana skin several times a day.
I had a wart on my index finger and after trying various medications, I heard about this on the radio. I thought, “What can it hurt?” Sure enough, the wart disappeared, never to return.
A. This is a variation on a wart remedy we’ve heard before. The one we’ve encountered several times calls for a piece of banana peel to be taped to the wart, with the fleshy white inside of the skin in contact with the wart. The peel is to be applied overnight and left off during the day.
