What I did was paint around the wart with clear nail polish, soak a little piece of cotton wool with apple cider vinegar and then secure it to my wart using plaster, I did this every night before I went to sleep, and kept it on as long as possible during the day. I would also dab apple cider vinegar on it whenever I could, especially after showering. It started to get little black dots in it and turn yellow and eventually, just came off with the plaster.

I did that a few times before and it just came back. After the wart falls out, you could try lightly dabbing the area with apple cider vinegar. It will sting a lot, but it helps kill any remaining bit of the wart.
