These unfortunately run in my family and I have started getting a couple on my trunk and back. I know they are not skin cancers and sometimes try to pick them off and apply bio oil but they just come back. I have shown them to a dermatology nurse in the past but she says I will just have to live with them. I'm fed up. In the good old days a GP would of cryothermied them off but no one will touch them now as seen as cosmetic.

Has anyone any home removal advice/ Tips. I have read about apple cider vinegar or wart treatments but not yet tried them.

Thanks in advance.

Will watch with interest, I'm 68, and have a LOT of these! Mostly on trunk, but one on my temple. I've picked a few, but most are not "pickable", my mother had them too.

Watching.

The NHS removed one from my face 12 years ago and now it's come back!

Can you lovely ladies with these uploads pics, I have them all over my stomach and breasts. I feel like I have more than anyone on the planet and panicking it’s something underlying.
