hello, since last week of March, but I've had a few people look who said Skins tags. Last week more appeared. it's getting stressful, and I will be even more annoyed if the doctors and nurse have diagnosed me wrong.

Skin tags can grow more and sometimes thwy do sprout up in the same area. However the concern is when it is near vag if you know what i mean. The one that looks like a wart to me
more than others is the one on the right in the middle. Which ones are new growth ? was it visual diagnosis ?

hey, yes visual diagnosis both times, the new one is the one on the left side. but I've noticed even more today. if it is skin tags can stress cause even more of an outbreak because I have been stressing about these all week, badly?. I have booked another appointment on Thursday, see if they say same again.

Hopefully they can perform a test besides brush it off as skin tag. Do you mean left side but on the pic right side ? Do you now have more than the pics originally posted ?

I will be really cheesed off if it is that, as I have been embarrassed and stressed and so upset having to go twice, and I'm still getting more of them. some days they change, it's really stressing me out, like the anxiety is unreal. the picture with the bottom two on, on the right side, one was always there, but there is an extra one. might just buy wart treatment online and see if it gets rid of them. save myself another degrading trip

i understand how your feeling however you have every right to seek medical advise and have a professional examine you. You should not feel embarrassed to get checked again. You will only get more stressed out. You can self medicate and by the medicine or go in to get checked. The fact that more are growing is the concerning part.

thanks, I am booked in again on Thursday. I only had a smear at end of 2019 and a std check, bad case of thrush lead to that. I do not believe they can be warts surely they'd of shown up way before now. although I have read you can years before an outbreak can happen. trying not to stress and question 2 medical professionals, but I can't help but think the worse

yeah thats true they could have shown up by now. However they can lay dormant and arise all of a sudden. Have you more partners since the test in 2019 ? yeah are minds always get the best of us at times. Do you have an old pic to compare if they were there before ?

Same person since then 2019. they only appeared in March, nothing was there before. I honestly do not believe he has been with anyone either. How am I supposed to approach this if it is them, Thursday seems so far away
