Skin tag has grown to 1 inch in diameter
I have a skin tag on my hip. It is now the size of a grape. I was earlier told it is harmless. I'm getting concerned at it keeps growing. There is also pain due to friction from clothes. Is there any OTC medicine or Isl should opt for laser removal? Also is it normal for skin tag to be this big?
