Why DIY Skin Tag Removal is Risky
Removing skin tags on your own may seem like a quick fix, but it carries several risks:
1. Infection
DIY removal methods can create open wounds, increasing the risk of infection.
2. Scarring
Incomplete or improper removal can leave visible scars.
3. Misdiagnosis
Some growths may look like skin tags but could be other types of lesions that require medical evaluation.
4. Bleeding
Inadequate methods can cause excessive bleeding, especially if the skin tag is larger or in a sensitive area.
