I had them very bad when I was younger (early high school)(mind you their all gone as well) and my wicked step mother made me wash the dishes (about two weeks worth)... so with my hand being in the HOT soapy water for so long I noticed a month or two later that some of the warts had gone away. I tested my theory later by preparing a concoction of the hotest water I could stand and the dish soap (it was Octagon but I believe anything would probably do) and soaked my hand for at least an hour... and the other warts went away.... Yeah, it may not work for you but it's worth a shot ay?
