Don't give up.: Warts are caused by a virus that your immune system does not mount much of a response to. They require multiple treatments every few weeks in order to clear. You can also try soaking the wart for 10 minutes every night in lukewarm water, then filing away the soft part with a nail file. (remember the wart is contagious, so don't use the file anywhere else.) cover the wart with duct tape at night.
