Aloe Vera

I have had a seborrheic keratosis just below my eye for a couple of years now. It started off looking like a small age spot but over the course of a couple of years it became very large and darker in colour and had a raised crusty appearance. I was becoming very self conscious of it as it really looked worse if I put makeup on it. After trying numerous remedies including ACV which just made it very sore and looked 100 times worse, I decided to try aloe Vera gel. As I had tried so many different remedies I really was not expecting any miracle cures whatsoever.
I started applying the store bought aloe Vera gel about 5 or 6 times per day. After about a week or 10 days I noticed that the keratosis had changed in appearance. It was looking much flatter and slightly blotchy. Being very encouraged by this I began applying the gel more often, up to 8 times per day or whenever I thought about it. I am pleased to say that after another week it is now very pale in colour, and has no raised appearance. I feel confident that with continued application of the aloe Vera that the seborrheic keratosis will go away altogether.
I understand that people have had great results with ACV and I am an avid fan of ACV for other purposes but I believe with a seborrheic keratosis on the face you can remove it much more discreetly with aloe Vera. Just apply and watch it fade away gently.
DMSO, Potassium Iodide, Niacin

Several years ago I was diagnosed with seborrheic keratosis in several places, and the Doctor used liquid nitrogen to freeze it. It was very painful and it came back. Next I tried burning it off myself using a soldering iron. It was much less painful but eventually came back, perhaps not as fast as before. So next I used some Chaga tea and extract, I put it on once a day for several weeks which actually made it smaller (NO PAIN) but it didn't completely go away. Next I tried Methylene blue (You can buy this for fish in the pet store to treat fungal infection) I suspected the Seborrheic keratosis is fungal in triggering it because it seems to come out in dark moist areas of the skin, especially on my back because I sleep on my back and sweat at night.
The methylene blue worked well. Just one dose and it dried up and fell off. But eventually came back and I had to repeat it. Since the MB stains I was looking for another cleaner remedy. I tried Garlic cloves, a slice taped to it, and I did seem to make it smaller after a few days of treatment, but I wanted something easier.
Now I tried my best cure yet:
I mixed up DMSO (Pure) with distilled water 50/50 in a 2 oz dropper bottle with 1/8 tsp pure potassium Iodide crystals and 500 mg niacin. I put this on once a day after my shower each eve. It was clean and didn't stain anything. The spots slowly got smaller & after a month are about 1/3 the original size or the smaller ones are gone completely. I am keeping this up until all are gone. I am also going to do some candida detox protocols to get rid of the systemic fungal. It also got rid of my brown liver spots when I used it on them.

I have the cure! My Barnacle was on the side of my breast. My GP assured me that is was nothing to worry about and it was not cancerous. The Barnacle began to grow and the skin on it was rough. My bra was constantly rubbing and making it itch. It grew to the size of my thumb nail. I decided to treat it myself with Petty Spurge which I had used successfully in the past to remove warts. After 2 weeks it had fallen off and left only proud smooth skin. There is scar tissue which is slowly healing with the help of Arnica Cream.
If you decide to try Petty Spurge – Be warned, it is extremely powerful!!!!!
One tiny drop twice a day only on the Barnacle itself. Avoid any contact with surrounding skin! I couldn't be happier to be without my Barnacle.

Hello Rene (U.K.),
Apart from other topical things you might consider trying, I would recommend starting something that works for me. Namely, a daily, high --quality, multi-vitamin and mineral pill which contains a decent amount of Selenium.
It will take several weeks to deliver improvement of course.
Best of luck with this.
Would be nice if you kept us informed of progress, please.
Cheers from Down Under

Magnesium Oil (Magnesium Chloride)
I was using Magnesium Oil on my lower back for pain.
Within 2 days of rubbing it on the growth I had in the same area died and could scrape it off with my fingernail.
It had become a gritty consistency and came straight off. It didn't grow back for as long as I used the Magnesium Oil.
You can make this yourself by dissolving magnesium chloride flakes in water.

Dear Irene, I am so sorry about this ongoing issue and current pain. As I read your post, my thought is, activated charcoal. There is hardly anything safer or more gentle. You can try 4 tablets or capsules twice daily. Take them 2 hours before or after any other medications. Please get plenty to drink, ideally with electrolytes. This helps with all sorts of pain and also helps to remove toxins from the system. I hope you find relief soon. ~Mama to Many~

We are lucky here in South Australia as Petty Spurge grows wild in many parts of our state.
Be particular and get it to soak into the senile warts and not run down your face or body skin as this is wasteful because you only get a drop from each cutting. It really gets in to kill the root of the wart.

I had been using Apple Cider Vinegar for months and it didn't really do anything, apart from making it look more inflamed. So I stopped that after about 5 months, and started to use Aloe Vera Gel 99.9% and its natural, use as often as you want. After only a few weeks I have noticed it's flatter and smaller so Im really pleased, I'm hoping it will disappear completely. I would 100% recommend using Aloe Vera Gel its about £6 for 200ml size from any health shop. Hope this helps others that have a Seborrheic Karatosis

Hello all, Rene here. It is a long time since I last visited this site and I have tried many things for my Seborrheic keratosis, I have hundreds of the things, down my back down my front. The tops of my arms and now in my hair line and in front of my ears. Treating so many is not easy and I have always felt that there must be something going on internally to cause so many. I have been reading about Urotherapy and it took a lot of thought but I decided to have a go. I have been putting a teaspoon of my own urine under my tongue morning and night. Unfortunately my lower legs have broken out in itchy sores but I am taking this as a sign that something is being cleared from my system. If this doesn't work I don't know where to go next…..it has got to work. Doctors don't realise how much it affect your life. I will keep in touch and let you know how I go on.I would be grateful if you will keep me in your thoughts. I need you.

Note about selenium... Brazil nuts have 544 micrograms per ounce... I think way more than anything else. Dr. Berg says Brazil nuts need to be soaked or roasted so that absorption of selenium is not blocked by phytates. If they're soaked it preserves other nutrients in the nuts. However if soaking makes them hard to digest ( like it does for me) you could bake at 350 degrees for 5-6 minutes in a preheated oven.
Best wishes!

Hello Gary, I would love to say that the urology treatment was going well but unfortunately I can't. My legs have cleared up but I am quite ill at the moment after collapsing while out shopping. Please see my other posting. I had very bad pain in my back and front…never known such agony. I now have lots of pain in my left side and don't know where to go from here. I had to give up on my urology because I don't know whether that was the cause of the problem. I have had another bout of pain since which lasts for hours and I am too scared to make things worse. I am very disappointed because I thought that the urology was going to solve all my problems. Maybe one day. Good luck to others who might try, I would love to hear how you went on. Blessings to all of you who care and are willing to help others. Rene

Seborrheic Keratosis gone in a few days
I've successfully removed senile warts with apple cider vinegar in the past, but I found an easier solution. A J-plasma device. You "burn" multiple holes in the warts. They turn black, die, dry up, and can be scraped off in a few days. Unlike freezing that the dermatologists do, they will never come back. Handheld J-Plasma devices are available to purchase for less than $100. Will remove moles too.

I would love to know where you get the pine sap and how much you use.I have a great many of the pesky things and wonder if your recipe harms surrounding skin. Is it possible. to treat an area of skin at once. I am quite desperate if anyone else has any ideas. Thank you everybody, this is a great site which I have only just found.

Thanks Gary, I will certainly look up Doctor Caldwell. I am sticking with the uropathy and my legs are improving. I really feel that there must be something wrong inside for there to be so many keratosis and I have read that uropathy heals everything. I am trusting that this will work.
to your good health. Rene.

Lisa:
I'm assuming that the methylene blue you bought is a 2.3% solution… Did you apply the MB straight from the bottle, or did you dilute it before applying?
How long did it take for the sk to dry up and fall off?
Looking forward to your reply. TIA. :)

35% Hydrogen Peroxide, Baking Soda Paste
Posted by Katherine (California) on 07/01/2024
I have had a keratosis (diagnosed by many doctors) on my face next to my eye for over 20 years. I have a newer red spot below my eye that I have treated with 3% H202 and apple cider vinegar. Both worked a little, but spot wouldn't go away. So, because I wanted to get rid of that spot I bought 35% H202 and tried it yesterday. It didn't fizz right away. Next I put a Q-tip sized dot of 35% on the keratosis and it fizzed and grew to 3x the size in a few minutes. The peroxide got onto tissue below the keratosis and it fizzed. Then, the area along my cheek bone fizzed all the way to my nose connecting the original keratosis with the new spot. The area was hyper pigmented in between, but smooth. Now it has fizzing blister-like raised spots along the pigmented edges. Reading about skin cancer here, I saw the paste of baking soda and coconut oil. Tried that today. Now whole area is red and swollen, so I sprayed it with Argentin Silver. Swelling has gone down, but need some advise on how to use both 35% H202 and BS paste. … how many times a day, How long to leave on or something else. I have healed myself so many times with remedies here. I am drinking 1/2 tsp BS in 8oz water 7x day for alkalinity. A Dr Sircus recommendation for cancer. I am only in my second day of discovery and treatment. It is overwhelming! Any advice?

I read that too much selenium can cause severe problems, I.e. breathing, etc. I have been eating two Brazil nuts every day. What dosage are you taking?

Hi Irene,
Drinking your urine is a very good start, continue it..You should wash your body with facecloth at bedtime. Dr.Lenard Coldwell is the best natural healer I ever come across. He is on youtube. One of his videos he said that #1 skin fixer is Hemp Oil.
I wish you the best

Kim,
It is also called Milkweed. I believe it grows wild in CA according to the map. I am in Florida and will have to go buy a plant.
Hope that helps.
