: Can anyone tell me if there is hope for a person with skin tags? After my last child was born, (15 yrs. ago)I got med./lrg. skin tags that hang outside my anus. Sometimes they swell and get painful & itchy but mostly they are just like loose grape size pieces of skin.

: I am in a new relationship with a man and I find it very embarrasing that he may eventually see this.
: Does anyone know if these external skin tags can be removed? I cannot find much information about this but read something about hemmroids being removed with tight elastics. Not sure if I fall into this category.
: Any information will be apprecitated.
Josie-I don't have any real advice for what to do with the skin tags, but hope that I can shed some light on the male perspective. If you and your partner are in a situation where he's actually seeing or is going to see your skin tags, then I'm thinking that you are either doing or getting ready to do something kinky (something anal) and I don't think he's going to care much about the skin tags anyway. If you and him have gotten that far, then he's NOT going to be turned off by something as minor as that. Good luck, and have fun with the anal activities!!
