Simple Home Remedy For Skin Tags

August 12, 2009

skintags11Skin tags are small growths on the surface of the skin. They occur mostly on the neck, groin and the armpit. Sometimes they can occur on the face as well. They are not malignant and painless.

They do not tend to change over time either. People with this problem tend to be more self conscious and afraid that people might stare.

Skin tag is a common problem in both men and women. But pregnant women are more prone to this skin condition. Now skin tags are not harmful. But if it tends to change through time or of it causes pain, then it is very important that you consult a doctor.

Here it should be mentioned that there are some simple home remedies for this problem and you can easily cure this problem of yours at home. And the best thing is that all the ingredients for the cure are available at your home.

The first cure is to use a paste. The making process is fairly simple. Just take some castor oil and baking soda and make a paste. The paste does not need to be too thick.

Apply it in the tag. Do this at least 3-4 times a day. Remember, this remedy will not cure the problem immediately. It will take a week or two for the tag to go away.

Soak a cotton ball in nail varnish and apply that on your tag. Do this regularly at least 3-4 times a day. Do not stop this until the tag goes away. The result should be visible from day 3.

The next remedy is bit different. This one actually requires something unusual — dental floss. Take the floss and tie it around the base of the tag. Tie it tightly, but not too tight. This will stop the blood flow in the tag and within a few days the tag will fall off. Sometimes this may take a while, but do not untie the floss till the tag is removed.

Many prefer to remove tags at home by using a nail cutter or any other sharp metal. That is certainly not the right method. It is dangerous and there is a risk of infection. If you want the tag to be removed surgically or if the tag is somewhere around the eye then consult a doctor. Do not try to do anything yourself.
