I recently had an influx of them on my neck. Think its an age thing. My mum has them too, so i guess its ihredeterity (sp) although I am mixed race so I thought I wouldnt have to suffer with skin problemos... Oh Hum.

The Dr told DH to get some silk thread, tie his skin tagg off & it would drop off

However I haven't been able to buy any silk thread yet

btw can you do that with a mole? One of mine got bigger when I was Pg and I'm terrified of catching it on something

LadyVictoriaOfCake · 20/10/2007 10:52

no, dont think you can do it to moles.

I am mourning the loss of one in my armpit after it got twisted in the strap of my nursing bra. That little blighter had been with me since I was born and now he decides to drop (off) me . Mind you, was rather sore whilst I was waiting for it to drop off so at least it doesn't hurt now.

If you can't face the idea of tying it off yourself, your GP will probably have a lumps and bumps clinic where they can cauterise it for you. Then again, maybe you've spent enough time with doctors recently and don't fancy going there if you don't really need to. How's he doing?
