Skin tag
I have a skin tag (a small harmless, but painful growth) under one breast. And no, there will not be pics. Has anyone removed one of these? I am debating cutting it off with nail clippers, but am faint-hearted because of the possible pain.
|
tie a piece of dental floss around it very tightly. it will starve and fall off by itself after a few days.
or, you can have a doctor remove it--I've done that, too, especially with large ones. |
Ewwwwwwwwwwww!
Can't you live with it? I have an anal tag thanks to piles a long while back. I can't imagine trying to remove it any time soon. Just realised you said painful. Painful how? Go to a doctor. I'd never advocated self surgery. And if it's painful just being there, I'd suggest that involves blood and nerves and things (that's the technical description). Removing it could mean a painful mess. |
I recall hearing something about using New Skin (almost like clear nail polish) to "starve" a skin tag - not sure if it works.
|
SG, painful is because it is right at bra line, and keeps getting rubbed and irritated. It may involve nerves, but I think I may just try the dental floss thing, or that freeze away wart stuff.
|
Go to wlagreens and you can pick up a remover. You can freeze it off yourself.
|
Gotcha.
Good luck. |
I have a boatload of these little fuckers. Walgreen's, you say?
|
I never knew you could do anything about them except have a doctor remove them. Blech. I also have a few I'd like to zap, but I'm a wimp.
|
Is this the too-much-information thread, because I have a pimple on my left nut that's the size of... my left nut.
|
How do you know which is the pimple and which is the nut?
|
The pimple is the one that gives off the most milky white fluid.
|
okay volunteers to pop UT's pimple-line up. (Hastily stepping back, myself)
