How To Treat White Skin Tag At The Back Of Throat?
I am a 33 year old female. I am 5 5 and weigh about 230lbs. I have what looks to be a white skin tag at the back of my throat. It has not always been there. I think it showed up a few months ago, but I can t be sure. It does not hurt at all. I touched it and it is firm but fleshy.

Hello
The skin tag maybe , what is called a fibro-epithelial polyp and may not require excision unless it is increasing in size or causing throat discomfort!
thanks
