For the last year or so i started to develope skin tags on the top and bottom of my eye lids...
Now i forget about them for a while but just looking in the mirror i think to myself... are these harmless... or not??
Now im freaking out... maybe they are cancerous... ive never ever thought to ask my doc..
I have a fair few skin tags dotted around my self but ostly areas that rub on my clothes... where as my eye lids (top and bottom) dont rub on anythin

Anyone with anything similar??? xx

I have not Pearl, But I know people who have had them removed(eye lids) with good results.
where we live one of our GPs removes them at the surgery. Being near the eye might be a hosp job. Go see your GP and put you mind at rest.

Do you never rub your eyes ? Just a thought. X

They are harmless, just a nuisance

My fiance has loads of skin tags, they are completely harmless. You can have them removed though if they are bugging you but medically they don't need anything doing to them.
