Is it just me or does anyone else twist their skin tags, I dont get many, but found a long time ago that if you keep twisting them they fall off, wouldn't have brought it up but one fell off tonight!:p

Does it not bleed when it falls off?

whats a skin tag?

Re: Skin Tags
 

LOL, I knew if I waited long enough someone would ask, saved me doing it!!

I presume Grego means the little 'ball' of skin that seems to sometimes grow on or usually around peoples necks. The best way I found to be rid of them was to tie a piece of cotton tightly around the base of it. After about 3 or 4 days it gets gangrene and falls off. I have only ever had two. I got rid of them both this way and neither of them bled when they eventually fell off.

Re: Skin Tags
 

I have a skin tag on my neck.
It's been there for has long has I can remember.
I'm quite attached to it now.
I did once arrange to have it removed.
But for some reason didn't happen.

Re: Skin Tags
 

that is exactly what I do grego but must admit not had one for ages. It can get quite sore but it's funny how you just can't help yerself twisting it :p

Re: Skin Tags
 

OMG :eek: they sound awful, are they painful?


At least I know how to deal with one if I get one, you learn something new everyday ;)

Re: Skin Tags
 

I think we've all done it at sometime or other and I’m sure those that might protest that they haven’t probably have and never even realised it. It might be as small as a zit head or a whopping dangly that blow’s in the wind. But before you all get the mirrors and the cheese wires out please consider that some might be something else and it might be better to get them, it, looked at before you go lobbing it off.

I've never had one, but I reckon that I would definitely be a twister should one develop. I know this with certainty as anyone who has seen me attack a zit would be able to confirm that a skin tag wouldn't stand a chance.

I am in no hurry to develop skin tags, I have grown several new body parts over the last couple of years, the latest being bingo wings.....:D

Re: Skin Tags
 

I have one under my arm and I would tie a bit of thread round it but I can't do it with one hand.......and believe me I have tried. I might get my daughter to do it for me when we go away in a couple of weeks.

Bingo Arms Lettie.......is that a new drinking venue......mine are more like th Concorde winspan.

oh i thought i must be thick :blush8: glad someone else diddent know either

Re: Skin Tags
 

You dont need the cotton Margaret just give it a twist, couple of times a day for a few days, it will either go black and drop off, or just drop off, it does hurt a little bit but no pain no gain, lol!

Doug tried to view your info but with no success, will try again later.

Re: Skin Tags
 

I cant do that with mine it hasn't got much of a 'stalk' on it......enough to tie some cotton round though.
