Skin Tag Problem - Skin Problems Message Board

HELP..........I have had one or two skin tags in the past under my arms. They really get in the way of shaving and it becomes a problem. I have had one removed twice. Lately I have been having more come up and now have four under my arm (and the return for the 3rd time of one). Does anyone have a home remedy for these without going to the doctor and paying a fortune for removing them.........not to say the discomfort. I don't believe that I could snip them myself. PLEASE HELP!!!!!

I also have skin tags under my arms and around my neck. I went to a doctor also and was told they don't need to be removed unless they get annoying. You are right it is very expensive to have them removed. I would not try to snip them off. Every time I have accidentally shaved one off it bleeds profusely. If you find a home remedy, please let me know too.

Just from reading off this forum I've seen lots of people say a cold pressed Castor Oil mixed with baking soda solution works, as well as Bio T for removing skin tags.
