• Genital wart?

I have a genital wart growing on my vulva. I've tried garlic but it still did not go away. I also tried hot water and salt, still nothing.

You need to have your gynecologist look at it. What appears to you to be a simple wart may be something else entirely, and require a more specific treatment.

Recommend you see a dermatologist

I recommend you seeing a physician or OBGYN as genital warts are caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) and some types of HPV are linked to the possibility of further development of cancer of the cervix or the vulva. In addition, the physician will have the expertise to properly remove the wart in order to prevent its spread (some can grow quite large if not properly treated).
