Wish I had tried Salicylic acid sooner

I am at my 4th month of MC and seeing light at the end of the tunnel so just want to share my experience

At the beginning I have tried ACV, tea tree, iodine, purple destin, pimple patches (must) and those had helped to bring MC to 'mature' but not enough to kill them. Tried cryotherapy and while it did helped to kill most of them, it left red marks that look like will take a few months to fade out (not to discourage people from getting cryo as who knows where I'd be at today if I didn't get it done back then). Self extraction could have worked but I never understood how to get the core.

After cryo there were still some small one left and I finally tried to put 17% Salicylic acid on (2% & 5% did nothing) and in a few days it made a difference already. While it hurts a bit after putting on, the 'dying' part was the easiest and less messy of all the methods I've tried, I feel like the acid killed the core vs other method waiting for the core to come out. Healing pretty well too

Btw I've been wearing gloves to wipe soap on the MC areas during shower just to be safe

I am at my last bits and mainly just taking care of the marks now. Hope this can help someone!
