Suggest Treatment For Skin Tag And Genital Wart?
Question: Is this a skin tag or a genital wart?
Brief Answer:
It seems to be skin tag,not wart...
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have gone through your photo and what you noticed is a skin tag, not a wart.
Skin tags are harmless small skin growths. Its location in the groin's fold is typical for skin tag, especially if you are obese.
Once again, they are harmless. I do not recommend to remove it unless it will give discomfort or will be inflamed/irritated (which is not for the moment).
All the best!
