A member asked:

Im 16 and have been getting skin tags around the neck and upper chest, is there any solution to get ride of skin tags ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Folds and moisture: The exact cause of skin tags has not been determined but they do commonly occur in areas of moisture and skin folds: groin, armpit, and neck. The traditional treatment is simple excision. However keeping the areas clean and dry may decrease or minimize formation.
