Suggest Treatment For Bleeding Skin Tag?
I have a skin tag at the top of my leg and under my groin, it has become black and swollen (5mm)and has started to bleed the smell is quite strong and resembles excrement. Is there anything I can do?, will it stop bleeding on its own? should I get to my GP?

hello
skin tag are soft fibromas (fibromas are benign tumours, consisting mainly of fibrous tissue)
Skin tags are made up of collagen fibres and blood vessels,
when they are getting biger they pedunculated, and sometime twisted around themselves and begin to bleed in this case its better to go at your doctor to remove .
