I'm Currently Feeling:  | Skin tags - getting more everyday, will they go??
Hi all
Something else I have, got loads of them, get more everyday and wanted to know how many others were suffering??
Skin tags - I have them on either side of my neck, loads and loads of them, got some on my boobs and some around my armpits. The ones on my neck are varying sizes, some quite large, dark brown, round the armpits are smaller, the ones on my boobs are flatter.
Does anyone know if these will ALL go or would I be left with some??? Is there anything I can do to help get rid of them? |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I have them too hun..... they are dark brown too and on my neck n under my arms... gained about 10 since I have been pregnant. I have a feeling that they wont just disappear and will have to have them frozen off/burnt off at docs after birth.... i hate them lol

| I was watching a programme the other night and it had a guy on who had loads of these and the doctor advised to tie thread around them tightly and after a few days they fall off!!! Can imagine this might sting a little tho!!! |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | ^ Yes,that's how you get them off. I saw it on tv,lol. The blood flow will stop going to them, so they'll fall off. I've not got any of these yet. |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Me - I have some tiny ones on my neck and a few under my bbs. I read that they're really common and sometimes they go and other times they dont. I'm gonna leave mine be for the mo and talk to my GP after I've had baby.

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I've got a ton of big ones on my neck  I also had them with the last pregnancy and they went away on their own after a few months from giving birth. I know docs can remove them, sometimes they freeze them like a wart and sometimes they topicaly numb the area and snip them off.
I can't wait to get rid of mine!! I have short hair and they really show  | | | | Status: Offline
