"I had 2 warts on my knuckles. The Compound W gel 'burned' the skin, then hardened to a white patch. The directions said to apply twice a day, but I was unsure because the white patch, almost like a scab, lasted 2 days. When it fell off, I tried again for another 3 days. By then the skin where the warts had been was red and scabby. I am not sure if all the wart is gone, and don't know if I should continue."

"I used the wart remover pads, which I purchased at the local drug store. Within 3 hours of applying, I had a high fever. Then my leg swelled and turned red. I was taken by ambulance to the hospital. Within a few days, my skin started blistering, leaking fluid, and it swelled so much that my leg was sliced open on both sides to stop the swelling, my toes were sliced open, as well as the top of my foot. It's been 5 months of living nightmare."

"Compound W caused second-degree burns on my knuckles where I applied a few drops on warts. Could not get Compound W off my skin. It acts like a super glue. After a few days, scraped the white product off, which caused sores. Applying Neosporin to heal the sores. No warning on product box or tube to warn about the super glue effect. Will not use this dangerous product again."
