since having my babies i have suffered with an anal skin tag which has got bigger after baby #2 recently. I have seen the consultant who has said he will operate under GA and remove the skin tag and leave the wound open to heal. I am booked in for this procedure in July.

I have read some horror stories online and i am petrified! I dont know what to do for the best. Can anyone share their experience of this procedure?

Thank you
