No: White vinegar (acetic acid) has commonly been used as a diagnostic test to help detect the presence of the hpv infection when warts are barely visible or not visible at all. The vinegar often will turn the infected skin area or wart a whitish color. The problem is that it is a non-specific test and other non-hpv lesions or irritations can also turn white. Vinegar will not treat or cure hpv or wart.
