A member asked:
Is there anyway to get rid of skin tag besides going to a doctor? the last one said i had one but never saw it (i felt firm lump in rectum).
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not.: If the tag is big enough to cause a "firm lump", it's not something you can handle yourself; and there's no way to reach it anyway! let a doctor take care of it.
