    Skin tags

    The past few months i noticed that i have skin tags, there about 3 under each armpit, now i noticed one on my neck were my throat is, there very small.
    The one on my neck itch and is a bit sore being that i been picking at it because when it first popped up i thought it was a pimple!
    Its half on my skin and half off should i pull it off? or let it heal! im scared i will bleed! Am i to young for skin tags??

    I get loads of them and the doctor removes them. You can also tie cotton round them and they will fall off in time

    I'm 26 and have loads. My dad has a lot so I'm guessing it's hereditary! They're unsightly though, I hate mine!

    I would get the doc to remove them and not pick them off. They burn them off lol

    Lol it's very painful when I do it. I don't pick them off I pinch with my fingers for days then they fall off. I would go to the doctor.
