Too Soon To Tell
I would never recommend Aldar to anyone. I used it 1x a day for 4 weeks and the affected area became quite large, it was very painful, it was also very gross looking, I lost over 10lbs. because I stayed nauseated pretty much the whole time during my treatment and towards the end I had to stay at home because I was so tired and basically felt like I had the flu.
Too Soon To Tell
Haven't started it yet, very afraid, read so many negative things about it..
So far no change, few more warts appeared. Only had three treatments so far.
Too Soon To Tell
I didnt notice any scabbing.

I just started using Aldara two days ago. I havent had too much of the burning that I was warned about but am having body aches and nausea. I prefer that to burning.
