Introduction
Plantar warts and skin tags can be both annoying and unsightly. These common skin growths often cause discomfort, especially on the feet, and many seek gentle, natural remedies before turning to harsh chemicals or medical procedures.

This article presents a straightforward, all-natural recipe that you can prepare at home using easily accessible ingredients. Along with detailed instructions, you’ll find helpful tips on application, variations to suit your preferences, and answers to frequently asked questions.
Ingredients
2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar (raw, unfiltered preferred)
1 teaspoon of baking soda
1 teaspoon of honey (preferably raw or organic)
1 small clove of garlic (finely minced)
Cotton balls or pads
Medical tape or bandages
Preparation
Mix the Base: In a small bowl, combine the apple cider vinegar and honey. Stir well until fully blended.
Add Baking Soda: Slowly sprinkle the baking soda into the vinegar-honey mixture. It will fizz initially—this reaction helps to exfoliate the skin gently.
Incorporate Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the mixture and stir to distribute evenly. Garlic has natural antiviral and antibacterial properties that help combat the wart-causing virus.
Soak the Cotton: Dip a cotton ball or pad into the mixture, ensuring it’s saturated but not dripping.
Application (Serving and Storage Tips)
Overnight Treatment: Place the soaked cotton directly over the plantar wart or skin tag. Secure it in place with medical tape or a bandage. Leave it on overnight for 6–8 hours.
Morning Care: Remove the cotton in the morning, rinse the area with warm water, and gently exfoliate the skin using a pumice stone or washcloth.
Repeat: Apply the treatment nightly for at least 7–10 consecutive nights, or until the wart or skin tag diminishes or disappears.
Storage: Store any leftover mixture in a small airtight container in the refrigerator. Use within 3 days for maximum potency.
