Suggest Remedies For Sore And Oozing Skin On The Anus
I have what I believe is a skin tag on my anus. I have had it for as long as I can remember and it has never been a problem. Up until recently it has become sore and sometimes it bleeds.. I don t know what to do but it is also embarassing. Is this something I should actually go to the Doctor for? Is it dangerous?

Hi
This isn't dangerous and you should have your doctor look at it, since it's very easy to remove, either by quickly snipping it off with a pair of sterile iris scissors or by freezing it with liquid nitrogen
