No: Before and after it ruptures / resolves without rupturing, soap and water. Remember it's a battleground between your white cells and some bacteria that got an advantage. Consider a trial of benzoyl peroxide even if you do not have bad acne.

Question 3

can drinking red wine vinegar burn fat?

Accepted Answer

Not really: First, drinking large amounts of vinegar can lead to possibly severe kidney damage, so do not drink more than what you would put on a salad or in a recipe at one time.

Question 6

could i use red wine vinegar instead of apple cider vinegar to get rid of a planters wart?

Accepted Answer

Neither will work: Vinegar of any kind does not treat warts. All vinegars have acetic acid, and it might be assumed it would help because one standard treatment for warts is bi- or trichloroacetic acid. But despite similar name, it&#x27;s a very different chemical. Could try OTC product like Compound W, but usually ineffective for plantar warts. See a dermatologist or other doctor for in-office treatment or prescription.
