Hello welcome to the HCM
If the skin around it becomes red,it can be side effect of podowart.other side effects can be burning,itching and swelling.
if it is causing more side effects,I am going to tell you a home remedy ,surely it may help you.
You need apple cider vinegar and cotton swab (or pure cotton batting).
1. Take a piece of cotton, large enough to cover the surface of the skin wart.
2. Fully soak it with apple cider vinegar;
3. Drain the excess vinegar from cotton (not to drip);
4. Place the cotton over the skin tag and use some aid that will hold it in the particular place;
5. The process can repeat every day, but not more than twice a day. Skin wart will get black color and will fall off within 3 to 5 days. If some traces of the skin tag still remain, do not despair. They will disappear within a week or less.
