A member asked:
I had a skin tag on my genital area and it turns black and fall off is it something to worry about?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Often a skin tag will turn black & fall off in several days as the blood supply to the tag clotted off. If the underlying area looks perfectly normal, I don't think he'll have to get checked by a physician, dermatologist or urologist.

No. What you described is not a cause for concern. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV, Flu and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!
