Healing Leaf LLC has encountered a few brave souls who simply clip small tags off with a nail clipper. Ouch! Not an avenue we would choose but it is most likely harmless. Infection opportunities certainly increase with that option so a caution there.

Most doctors recommend removal of skin tags only when they are irritated or a source of discomfort, or if they constitute a cosmetic problem. Skin tags can be easily removed in the doctor's office by tying or cutting them after injecting a small amount of a local anesthetic. Freezing, a technique sometimes used to remove warts or other benign lesions of the skin, is also sometimes performed for the removal of skin tags.

If you are unsure about any changes in your skin or growths arising on the skin, always check with your doctor. He or she can identify skin tags and other skin conditions and can help you decide whether skin abnormalities should be more thoroughly inspected.

Symptoms

The only symptom is a growth on the skin. Skin tags are usually small, although some may be up to a half-inch long.

Other characteristics are as follows:
• Located on the neck, armpits, trunk, body folds, or other areas
• May have a narrow stalk
• Usually skin-colored, occasionally darker
Diagnosis is based primarily on the appearance of the skin growth.
