Skin Tags

posted 26th Nov
I have tons of them but one in particular in my armpit area is hurting and looks like it is coming off. Has anyone ever gone to the doctor/dermatologist and got them removed or any way to remove them at home? Thanks for helping/looking

Apple Cider Vinegar is a popular home remedy for skin tags
Mild acidic substances, such as apple cider vinegar, can be applied daily to the affected area. Soak a cotton ball in apple cider vinegar and cover the skin tag with it. Allow it to sit for three or four hours, then wash with warm tap water. The skin tag, as well as the area around it, will become swollen. Occasionally, if the skin tag is small enough, one application of apple cider vinegar will be enough to cause the tag to fall off completely, while more persistent skin tags can require a week or more of at home treatment. Apple cider vinegar is just one of many acidic preparations that can be applied this way. The same claims have been made about tea tree oil, castor oil, and even crushed aspirin, which contains acetylsalicylic acid.

Also, I've heard nail polish applied to it for a couple of weeks will also work. (something about nail polish not allowing the skin to breath).

Hope one of these works for you!

well I tried using my acne cream from Olay and it turned the top part black and it's shriveling up. Makes me want to throw up but I am going in to see the dermatologist because I do not want it to get infected so I want to see what she says.
