Skin tag TMI

So I have a skin tag on my groin, right next to my vagina. It's been there for a while but the last couple of days it really hurts. It's hanging on by a thread tbh. I've also been getting brown discharge the last couple of days which I know can be normal but I'm still panicking. Do you think I should my midwife or GP?

Oh and I'm 23 weeks.

I would ring the doctors. I think skin tags can be taken off.

But the midwives about the brown discharge, it might be okay but it's best to get it checked.

Thanks. I'll ring them both on Monday.

I have a skin tag which I thought was a wart when I got pregnant as it started getting sore and felt like it was getting bigger! Got it checked out and they confirmed it wasn't a wart. I think there's just generally more pressure and blood circulating about down there which can irritate things.
