nessa Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Just wondered about your experience with the wart ade? Any benefits noted yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rascalsmom Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I have been using it on Jack faithfully--at least twice daily, sometimes three or four times. So far, no difference, but it's early yet--only a week or two. Seems like every time I put it on him, he promptly stands up and rearranges his bed, thereby wiping it off. It works better if I sit there and pet him for a few hours.... Quote Phoebe (Belle's Sweetpea) adopted 9/2/13. Jack (BTR Captain Jack) 9/28/05--11/2/12Always missing Buddy, Ruby, and Rascal.

nessa Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 thanks for the feedback. So frustrating and slow going to treat without surgery, hulling or such. I love my vet, but I do not think he is familiar with corns and I do not want to surgically remove it and that might be his suggestion.

rascalsmom Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 (edited) Our vet suggested removing Jack's worst corn--and she is VERY grey-savvy, even went to OSU. She told us 'about 50%' of them come back. No way will I do that....I have heard too many stories of people having that done, and the corn is back before the pad is even healed....or having a toe amputated, and a new corn pops up on the adjacent toe. I will try every other possible treatment, but I will NOT go down the surgery road. Have you joined the yahoo cornhound group?

nessa Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 I am joining the cornhound group as we speak. Never heard of it before so thanks. I just do not want to put my 9 yr old girl under for surgery for a corn if there is ANY thing else we can do!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandimom Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Too early to tell as we just started the Wart Ade last week (even marked it on the calendar so I would have a reference). Doing it twice a day. Also giving her 500 mg. twice a day of Bee Propolis orally. Took her in today to have her nails clipped and have the warts dremmeled down and it did look like one huge ugly wart was ready to fall off. We did try to get it off but she did not want anything to do with it. Before I got her gh rescue had the warts surgically removed. Several have come back but not as many as she had. I don't think I would have them surgically removed though again. When she came to us from rescue she still had the stitches and her feet hurt so back we would have to carry her outside to go potty.

4My2Greys Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Chiming in- I did have successful surgery done on my girl-never came back. Just want to add that we were successful with surgical removal also with a very big corn on Nadir's toe that gave him trouble for years . It has never come back and he hasn't been bothered by any others developing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
