Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi. I have a skin tag on my upper thigh on the inside. It rubs against my pubic area. It wasn t an issue until a few days ago when it started to hurt. It is now a dark purple color, and it has a very foul smell. Is it safe to remove? I read that Apple vinegar on it overnight will make removal painless, how true is that? I m not worried about scarring as its in a place that is very well concealed, but the less pain the better.
