Skin tags are caused by blood vessels and collagen that accumulate in the skin. These small fleshly outgrowths can appear on armpits, breasts, eylids and arms. They are easy to treat with a few homemade remedies. One treatment is tea tree oil. Simply pour 2-3 drops of the oil on a cotton ball soaked in water, then gently rub it in a circular motion. You can also soak a cotton ball in apple cider vinegar and place it on the skin tag. Pineapple juice is another option. Simply rub a small ammount on the skin tag a few times a day for ten days.
If those don’t work, you can try placing an oinion in salt overnight, then squeeze the juices out and apply for 10 days.You can also apply a mix of caster oil and baking soda for 2-4 weeks. Otherwise, place the inside of a banana peel on the tag overnight and wrap with gauze, repeat until gone. You can even apply duct tape once a day to try to remove it.
Since skin tags are largely harmless, these home remedies can help remove them. Be sure to never atttempt surgical procedures at home, and see your doctor if irritation or other problems occur.
