I have one on my inner thigh that talks to me every morning, I wanted to cut him off but he pleaded a good case so he is still with me, glad to now know he isnt hurting me but taking half of my food supply!
If in fact it is a skin tag, even if large, it is not dangerous. Unfortunately I have seen many skin cancers and other growths on the neck which were self-diagnosed as skin tags. For any diagnosis of any skin condition, lesion, etc, always go to a skin expert/dermatologist. It could save your life.
I have noticed a benign growth of skin tags on my neck which I have never seen before and it wasn’t there a year ago but I am seeing a lot more on my neck now and when I run my fingers down my neck, I can feel it. Please let me know what should I do? F 26, I have put on weight during quarantine -_-
Weight gain, pregnancy, and diabetes are common causes of rapid development of skin tags. Best to see your dermatologist to remove these skin tags safely and properly and with no scar, and ask to get tested for diabetes as well.
I am 14 and have a skin tag in armpit..it causes irritation sometimes when rubbed with clothing. Is it normal and one another query that can the appearance can change in skin tags
I went to dermatologist last year 2016march and took all my skintags since they are growing fast. But right now i could see tiny bits coming back again.. Can u make a video on how to make it grow slower? I thi k this is hereditary though
The only way to affect skin tag growth is by keep weight stable or losing weight. Increased weight increases the number, size and recurrence of skin tags. Other causes for skin tags such as getting older and genetics are not under your control.
Most important thing is to get a proper diagnosis, see your dermatologist to confirm and then to review treatment options. I've had many people come to me for "skin tags" which turned out to be moles, or warts, or keratoses or skin cancer, or other things...
I went on a 10 day juice fast detox and my skin tag fell off ! First it doubled in size, than and became red than blue than black.At that point it was about 3x bigger than 5 days earlier, than started to shrink and dried up and fell off. There is not an even bump on that spot.
@@Torontodermatologycentre lol burn me?! Apple cider vinegar?! Dude I use straight bleach to burn poison oak off me, ain’t no apple cider vinegar gonna affect me...

They literally explained what skin tags are, benign growths that stick out of the skin and what is the main factor(s) that causes it, what are you even looking for.

Skin tags can occur at any age, and their appearance can change over time.
I had one in my armpit that hurt randomly right now so I cut it off with some nail clippers. Am I going to die ?
We'll all die eventually. Hopefully you properly cleaned the skin tag and didn't use rusty nail clippers, and then you should be fine.
What should I do to remove skin tags
See your dermatologist to safely & effectively & relatively painlessly remove them

Doubt this would consistently work, likely a coincidence.
I got one on my buttcheek, I feel like I could just pull it off. Imma try apple cider vinegar on it.
Won't work, could burn you; we've seen many scars from apple cider vinegar used to treat various things.

@@TheFrogfeeder imagine questioning a doctor
@@youcansave15ormoreoncarins75 trust him he's the frog feeder
I have 2 on my feet.. I had the trimmed when I was young.
Unlikely to be skin tags
If I just rip it off will it be okay ?
As long as you don't mind the pain, and the risk of infection and scarring and it regrowing, should be just fine! ;)
@@Torontodermatologycentre no thank you 🤣 I’ll laser it

@@Torontodermatologycentre What else could it be?

Sir my brother is just 13 years old
Certainly doesn't sound like a skin tag based on its behaviour. Get a dermatologist to assess it for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
On gosh I think I have diabetes im crying
FredBear 1987 what happened??? I have one.. small under my arm but messes with me at the gym
I have three on my hand
We never get skin tags on the hand, its something else, see your local dermatologist for a diagnosis and treatment plan
The video doesn't actually explain what skin tags are. Annoying. What is the point of having a title if it doesn't label the content of the video?
A small piece of extra skin.
