Warts

I sit here this evening, contemplating the warts on my left thumb. A few months ago, I began working to get rid of them, using one of those salicyclic acid-based wart removers. I hd three warts, and after a long struggle, they went away. A few weeks passed. They came back, and brought a friend. So I've started attacking them again, adding this time a day's soak in a heavily-chlorinated swimming pool. I think I'm winning the battle again, but I can't be sure they'll ever go away. That the three came back with another worries me that I'm going to end up like that guy in Thailand, who is slowly turning into a tree because of all the warts he has.
