A skin tag is a common, benign condition which consists of a bit of skin that projects from the surrounding skin and may appear attached to the skin. Skin tags can vary quite a bit in appearance. They may be smooth or irregular, flesh colored or more deeply pigmented, and either simply be raised above the surrounding skin or have a stalk (a peduncle) so that the skin tag hangs from the skin.
What are skin tags? how do you get them and how do you remove them?
they are basically little flaps of skin....
the doctor said that some people are just predisposed to getting them....in other words~hereditery.
a doctor can 'snip' them off....had it done more than once.
Reply:I got those nasty things years ago. I went to the doctor and he burned them off with a little device (no, it did not hurt.). I had them mainly around the back of my neck (where a necklace would rub) and on the back of my shoulders (where the bras straps would rub). He removed something like 50 of those things--some were barely visible with the human eye.
I have gotten just a few more over the last 10 years--and will have them removed too. I have heard there is a home method to remove them--have someone tie a piece of thread around one and tie a knot. The restricted blood flow will cause the skin tag to fall off.
Reply:They are little pieces of skin that resemble moles that stick out. Usually found around the neck/shoulder area. I'm not sure how or why people get them, I started getting them when I was pregnant the last time. The doctor told me it was hormones. They can be removed very easily by a doctor. Basicly they just snip them off with a pair of special sissors. No big deal.

Skin tags can occur almost anywhere there is skin. However, favorite areas for tags are the eyelids, neck, armpits (axillae), upper chest, and groin. In cases in which a skin tag is irritated or cosmetically unwanted, treatment may be done by freezing the tag with liquid nitrogen, tying off the tag with a thread or suture so as to cut off the blood supply, or cutting off (excising) the tag with a scalpel or scissors.
Reply:ive had them and they are just growths that are genenic and happen sometimes. I got them randomly and i picked them off and they never came back. go to the doctor and they can remove them if you want too.
Reply:I cut them off with fingernail clippers, and it does hurt.
Reply:Skin tags are a small outgrowth of skin tissue. I read somewhere in the last few days that clear nail polish kept on for three days will make the tags drop off. You have to keep applying the polish. Otherwise, there are some meds out there that is supposed to help. You can also see a doctor to have them removed. They are benign.

Why are skin tags so common in your armpits?
Because of the friction of your skin- that's how they develop. What's cool is that you can have them easily removed!

Reply:Probably it's because your bra rubs against them. As the other person mentioned, it's easy to get them removed.

What causes skin tags? Is there a natural way to get rid of them?
What causes skin tags?
It is not know what causes skin tags. However, the following factors may play a role:
Chaffing and irritation from skin rubbing together
High levels of growth factors, particularly during pregnancy or in acrogmegaly (gigantism)
Insulin resistance (syndrome X)
Human papilloma virus (wart virus)
How can they be removed?
Skin tags can be removed for cosmetic reasons by the following methods:
Cryotherapy (freezing)
Surgical excision (often with scissors)
Electrosurgery (diathermy)
Ligation (a suture is tied around the neck of the skin tag)
What causes skin tags? Is there a natural way to get rid of them?
i've heard it's and extension of a blood vein, that has been rubbed for long periods of time. i think age and size have alot to do with it personally. i know of no cure except a dr's visit.

I have skin tags under my eyes does anyone know how to get rid of them short of burning them off my doctor say
If they're near your eyes I would let a professional take care of them.
I have skin tags under my eyes does anyone know how to get rid of them short of burning them off my doctor say
the doctor will use dry ice to do it, it doesnt hurt and takes a couple of days to come off
Reply:Burning them off cauterizes the blood flow that they may have. It takes a second.
Reply:take a piece of string or dental floss and tie it tight around it to cut off the blood flow, and it will pretty much just die and fall off...
Reply:Tie a piece of floss round them until the skin dies and falls off.....????
No way- burning is the fastest and easiest.....only hurts a tiny bit, but close your eyes just in case.
Reply:BE OPEN MINDED.
ok, I get rid of them all the time by myself, there are a few things.
#1.) pull out a piece of your hair or get a very thin thread, wrap it around the skin tag and leave it there for a few hours. the blood will drain from the area and then you take a toe nail clipper and clip it off. apply pressure to sstop active bleeding
#2.) just clip it off, if it's a small one. apply pressure to stop active bleeding
you will have to use triple antibiotic ointment on the cut and a bandaid. make sure to clean the toe nail clipper with alcohol before and after and use the ointment to prevent infection.
I do this ALL THE TIME, my doctor always wants to do it, but I have taken them off from all over my body this way and it never bothers me, and I save a bunch of money

What Causes "Skin Tags"?
Black people get skin tags often, but if you are white, then they probably come from friction from necklaces or sweating.
What Causes "Skin Tags"?
there is no certain cause of skin tags. some think that they could be due to friction when skin is rubbed together - they're more common in the groin or armpits.

What causes skin tags,is it age?
A skin tag, also known as an achrochordon, is a benign growth of skin that is connected to the body by a short stalk. Skin tags are found most commonly on the armpits, neck, and groin. People who develop skin tags tend to get more as they grow older. Skin tags can be surgically removed.What causes skin tags is unknown, but they do appear more frequently in areas where the skin is rubbed by clothing or by other body parts, such as in creases like your underarm. They also tend to appear in hot, moist places such as under the breasts, between the thighs, or around the genitals.

Anyone else? skin tags by ears, poor hearing, ruptured ear drum,?
My 7month old baby was born with large pendulous skintags on the outsides of both ears. He failed his newborn hearing test 2x in the left ear, before passing it on a 3rd try before being referred to an audiologist. In less than 4 months, he has had 3 ear infections (left ear only), 2 of which had only one symptom: a ruptured ear drum- no fever, no complaining, no eating problems- just yellow slime seeping out of his little ear (NO, we don't smoke at ALL, he doesn't lay down with a bottle, and I don't clean his ears with q-tips-in fact, they're pretty clean naturally). He also has a large (fist-sized) lumpy non-colored birthmark on his lower back- but I don't think that's tied into it. My pediatrician says it's all coincidence, but it seems like too much is going on with his left ear to me. Has anyone else dealt with this combination of symptoms? Was it indicative of an inner-ear abnormality? My pediatrician won't refer to a specialist unless he has 1 more ear infection.
Anyone else? skin tags by ears, poor hearing, ruptured ear drum,?
I work for an ENT and it sounds like your little boy needs tubes. The yellow puss coming out of his ear draining from an infection. Did you know that a lot of specialists do not make you have a referral. It is the insurance company who makes you get one. Check with your insurance company and see if you have to have one. If you do need one I would see another pediatrician. Some kids only have drainage when they have an ear infection and no other symptoms. To prevent ear infections though as you know no bottle while laying down and also dont get water in his ears during bath time. Good Luck

My son in law has skin tags. He hated them so he decided to do something about it and he went to the doctor. They removed them, right in the office. He is glad he did it. If you want to get rid of them too, please see your doctor. He can safely remove them for you.

I have skin tags on my face and would like to try a natural at home product to remove them! Does it work?
I have skin tags under my arm, i went to the dr. and she numbed them and than they clipped them off, didn't hurt. if you try anything else they might get infected, some say you can tie a string around them. tie it as tight and you can stand it and they will fall off, cause they get no blood to them and they just fall off. that is one way, be careful that they don't get infected.

it might be better to go to the docs, but if you tie a thin piece of cotton tightly around it, it will kind of ''suffocate'' it and 'fall off, the doc did that to my mum, and the tag went within 2 days!
good luck, and be careful with it

How are skin tags removed?
I heard you cut them.. my doctor wanted to in the office but I was nervous and said no, now I want to.. can I just cut them with scissors? Is there anything I can use to numb the area? Thanks.
How are skin tags removed?
There are a number of ways to remove skin tags. Small ones that don't carry a large blood supply can be snipped off with scissors or nail clippers. They can be tied with fine thread, left to die from lack of blood flow, and fall off, or they can be frozen. I've removed some small ones with Compound W Freeze Off (available over the counter). If you're going to snip them, you can try numbing them with ice beforehand. Ice will also decrease the blood flow. Be sure to apply pressure to the wound to stop the bleeding when you're done. There are also some creams sold that claim to remove them, though I've never seen anyone who actually used them with success.
Reply:Let the Doctor do them it will be quick and painless.
Reply:The fast way is to have the doctor freeze them off or cut them or tie them off. The slow way is to learn why you have them in the first place, and change your lifestyle to remove them. Mine were likely the result of my hypoglycemia needing places to put fat and tissue and water.

Can skin tags grow?
Yes-
Have an MD look after them they are very vascular and can bleed a lot - so it's best to have them removed by an MD.

The reading I have done regarding blood sugar imbalances indicated that skin tags are just one place your body stores excess fluid and "fuel". This happens if you have overproduction of insulin resulting in low blood sugar. Check out www.hufa.org for more info on how high insulin causes low blood sugar.
The discoloration may be due to some other thing. I think tinea versicolor can be caused by a candida overgrowth. Candida likes bodies that are blood sugar imbalanced. There is some info about candida (yeast) at www.hufa.org, too.
Please feel free to e-mail me if you have questions.

Not all people have them but when they come into contact with someone who does get them - all of a sudden they will start to develop them - so they Do seem to be contagious.
But I have no idea what the method of transmission is, if they have to do with a virus, or what.
Aparently however thay are not cancerious - only annoying.

What causes skin tags? Are they dangerous ?
A skin tag is a common, benign condition which consists of a bit of skin that projects from the surrounding skin and may appear attached to the skin. Skin tags can vary quite a bit in appearance. They may be smooth or irregular, flesh colored or more deeply pigmented, and either simply be raised above the surrounding skin or have a stalk (a peduncle) so that the skin tag hangs from the skin.
Skin tags are frequently found on the eyelids, neck, chest, armpits, and groin.
Treatments include freezing, tying off with a thread or suture, or cutting off.
