Skin tags on Vaginal Area....Help?!?!
Question: I am embarassed as heck about this, and I do not want to particularly say anything to the doctor. (Granted I will call her tomorrow). Everyone says getting them removed is fairly painful and I would imagine even more down there. Has anyone ever had one removed from there. i want it off more for it being irritating than cosmetic.

This may sound a little crazy BUT I have gotten rid of them by tying them with a piece of thread.
First, clean the area with something antibacterial - like alcohol, etc. Take a piece of thread, wrap it around the skin tag and tie it very tightly in a double knot. It is the cutting off of blood flow to the skin tag that makes it harden and fall off in a few days.
I've not done it in the "area" you have them but I have done this on my neck, arms, underarms, etc. It is easier if you hold the skin tag out with a pair of tweezers and let someone else tie the thread. It does sting for just a minute when the thread is tied, but that passes and you do not even realize that there is anything there.
Good luck!
I did have 3 small skin tags removed from just below my vaginal opening. My sister had two removed. Her's were frozen off and mine were cut off. Both were numbed, quick and painless but both hurt a bit afterwards. She had to wait about 5-6 weeks before she could have intercourse without pain and I had to wait about 3-4 weeks. I had minor bleeding and minor pain when I wiped after urinating or deficating. The pain was only persistent for the first 24hrs or so then it was just if I really stretched the area or wiped after bathroom use. It wasn't so bad and totally worth it to have them removed.
what in the heck are skin tags???
I'm sorry Destiny I just don't know what skin tags are.
