TMI but for those that have suffered with anal skin tags - could you feel them - did it feel like you were sitting on something? How big do they have to be to be removed? Thank you

I had one, caused by IBS and fissures. It was about the size of a large pea and had it removed 18 months ago. Yes, I could feel it when it was sore and IBS had flared up.
They also injected botox at the same time to heal the fissures. I had 3 weeks off work, although I should probably have had longer.

Its not the most fun medical procedure but so far mine hasn't returned or caused any long term problems.

@Newname9 Did you end up getting your skin tag removed via the nhs? How was it?
