Advice please on big skin tag

Postby Fissurefrustration » 01 Apr 2014, 13:38

I still have a persistent AF and it's starting to feel a bit better however I've got a big skin tag that starts inside the sphincter then radiates outside to my normal skin. I'm adamant this tag is stopping the AF from healing properly and it's always niggling away with pain! My GP said there is nothing she can do as its too "complex" and pretty much fobbed me off!! do any of you have any advice? this tag is ugly, painful and I just want it gone to see if it will subsequently heal my AF.

thanks :) x

Sorry that you are in pain :smilyhug: We all know what that is like on here :roll:

I have skin tags, but have had them for so long that I guess I am just used to them, knowing this comes with having surgery in the area.

Have you considered seeing a CRS instead of a GP? They are much more attuned to things anal. I know there are a few on here who have had surgery on tags, but that is giving you more scar tissue in the area. Still, best to speak to the best CRS you can find. Sorry can't help much.

I definitely second the CRS. It sounds like on here that a lot of CRSes don't remove them, but in my case, I left it up to him, and he choose to remove it.

How was your healing after the skin tag removal? Are you left with any scar or are you looking back to normal down there?
