Can A Skin Tag Be Two Inches Long And Thick As A Thumb?

My daughter has a large skin tag on her inner thigh. I m wondering if it is an actual skin tag or something else because it is about 2 inches long and as thick as a thumb. It is webbed at the end. I have many skin tags in my armpits and have had them on my thighs before, but they ve been very tiny compared to what she has. Thanks in advance for your time, James
