Is the mechanism by which warts are destroyed by salicyclic acid well understood? Does the acid destroy the virus, the host (skin cells) or both? Does the acid change the growth rate of skin - is this an important factor? Some treatments include [[Collodion]] which dries to a celluloid film. Does this only protect other body parts and other people from infection or does it work like [[Duct tape occlusion therapy]]?

Mechanism

Is the mechanism by which salicyclic acid removes warts well understood? Does the acid destroy the virus, the host (skin cells) or both? Does the acid change the growth rate of skin - is this an important factor? Some treatments include Collodion which dries to a celluloid film. Does this only protect other body parts and other people from infection or does it work like Duct tape occlusion therapy? Pgr94 14:12, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
