Table vinegar is actually a very useful medium in detecting and exterminating the genital warts. Although there’s no medical proven evidence of the use of vinegar in treating genital herpes, there are many people who claimed that their genital warts disappeared after using the genital warts and some more, the genital warts never came back. Perhaps it’s because the vinegar is acidic making it effective in killing the virus that cause HPV.

Apple cider vinegar is useful to detect the presence of HPV. This is done when a woman who has abnormal Pap smears and yet cancerous cells can’t be detected. Vinegar is used in visual examinations. During the examination, vinegar is out on some cotton wools and are then swabbed around the genital area especially penis, cervix, labia and anus. If there are genital warts, they will turn white upon contact. However, appearance of whitish areas may not mean that they are genital warts as it could also signal other STDs such as yeast infection and genital herpes.

Vinegar is also useful in genital warts home treatment. As said earlier, there is no medical evidence showing its efficiency in treating the genital herpes. Perhaps because vinegar’s acidic substance helps to kill the HPV and also burning off the genital herpes. Furthermore, many people claimed that vinegar rid them of such irritations and it’s also not costly. There are also individuals saying that adding aspirin with vinegar and make them into paste actually helps. For those of you who want to try it, here’s the procedure. Put some vinegar onto the cotton wools and paste them onto the warts using duct tape. You can also add some aspirin to the vinegar and then paste them onto the warts. However, you must not rush when using applying the treatment as more time is needed for new skin to grow. The paste should be left onto the warts for just a couple of hours and not the whole day as it might burn the skin instead, causing the area to turn black. The genital warts will turn black and turn into scabs. Repeat a few rounds until the scabs fall off. Then, new skins will grow. Again, repeat the treatment one or two times to completely eradicate the genital warts.

Vinegar is useful in detecting and treating genital warts. However, it is still advisable for everyone to justify their choice themselves through extensive research of the treatment methods and not merely listening to rumours.
