I am getting rid of my seed wart with dr scholls liquid wart remover and i took of the patch after all day and there was raised hard white skin around?

Normal: The Salicylic acid in the Dr Scholls causes the surrounding skin to become white and the skin elevates as it retains moisture form being covered. The skin should return to normal

Not Unusual: What you are describing is the normal reaction of the surrounding normal skin to the acid treatment. You should be able to file away the dead skin painlessly before your next application.
