Umm,,, more of a myth or wives tale covering warts with any tape will
cause them to go away. Warts are actually caused by a strain of HPV
and unless they are surgically remove they will reappear. Not saying
in some remote cases tape doesn't help to shrink or prevent further
growth but there are no medically documented cases proving tape as a
qualified medical treatment.


A doctor at our states largest university teaching hospital
recommended duct tape for warts. And it worked!
