Suggest Treatment For Sore On Anus

Posted on Sat, 12 Dec 2015

Question: I had a pimple or sore on my anus a while ago and it left a piece of skin left over and I asked a doctor on here about it. He had said it was a skin tag. Recently again I had a sore on my tongue that healed but left a piece of skin afterward. Is that also a skin tag? Is it a scar? Will it take a long time to go away?

Hello. Thank you for your time. Unfortunately I cannot get a picture of the skin tag that is clear enough for me to send. I do not have the proper camera equipment. Every picture I take is too blurry to distinguish the skin tag.

Brief Answer:
Skin tag unlikely

Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir.

I can certainly understand your concern.

I would have guided you more accurately with images on.

But nevertheless, I don't think the scar of the tongue sore is a skin tag.

This will go away gradually.

The possibility of remnant callous tissue is high rather a scar.

Thank you.
