Skin tag removal

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hi all, I have quite a few small skin tags on my neck that I've had since my pregnancy 9 years ago. Sometimes they can get really irritated and cause dry patches on my neck. I know there's some heat pens and cryo pens out there to use. I'm looking for recommendations on what you've used and what works. Thank you.

    Hi

    I have had several tags, neck, leg and back.

    I got my partner to tie off the one on my back as it kept bleeding and was always sore. She tied it, but it hurt alot... So after like an hr I took it off... Woke up like a week later and I noticed it wasn't even there... Not a single mark as to where it was. This tag was large too.... Same on my leg.

    Stop the blood supply. It will die and fall off. Look on amazon for skin tag removal... Put a plaster over it when it's tied if you have clothes tht may rub it.

    Agree with Nathan. Get some new,clean cotton thread and tie a very tight knot around each one at the base. They should drop off after a few days.
