A member asked:
Can you use the over the counter "wart remover" to do cryotherapy, or does it need to be done by a physician? thank you

This needs to be: done by a physician to prevent any complications. At least talk to your doctor about it first before doing anything.

Just do it.: The reason it's allowed to be over the counter is because testing has shown that a typical consumer has the ability to use it safely and effectively. Now get out there and give it a try.
