I've been using Virasal 27.5% Liquid 10ml for the past few weeks to treat a stubborn wart on my foot. The instructions say to apply it directly to the affected area, and it's been working pretty well so far. The salicylic acid in it definitely softens the skin and helps it peel away. However, I did experience some mild skin irritation and a bit of burning when I first started using it. Has anyone else had a similar experience? Also, I'm curious to know if anyone has had any of the more serious side effects listed, like mood changes or ringing in the ears. I've been lucky so far, but it's always good to be prepared. How long did it take for others to see results?

I've been using the Salicylic AC 6% Kit for the past month to treat plantar warts and it has been working well so far! I initially had a hard time removing the dead skin cells, but I've found that my skin has softened and I've seen some callouses peel off. I was a bit worried about the side effects; I'm getting some minor skin irritation and burning, but nothing too painful. Has anyone else had any severe side effects like ringing in your ear, dizziness, or feeling weak? I've been trying to keep my skin moisturized to help with the dryness. My doctor recommended that I keep using it unless I experience a serious side effect, so I'll stick with it. I've seen some posts online about people having allergic reactions, so I'm just hoping that doesn't happen to me.
