Understanding Warts & Skin Tags:

While both warts and skin tags are generally harmless, they can be bothersome due to their appearance or location. Understanding the differences between the two can help guide appropriate treatment and care.

Warts:

Warts are small, rough growths caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). They can appear on various parts of the body such as the hands, feet, and face. Because they are contagious, warts can spread through direct contact or shared surfaces.

There are Several Types of Warts:

• Common warts – Usually appear on fingers and hands.
• Plantar warts – Develop on the soles of the feet.
• Flat warts – Smaller and smoother, often on the face or legs.
• Filiform warts – Long, narrow growths often around the mouth or eyes.

Skin Tags:

Also known as acrochordons, skin tags are soft, flesh-colored growths that often occur in areas where skin rubs together, such as the neck, armpits, groin, and under the breasts. Unlike warts:

• They are not caused by a virus.
• They are non-contagious.
• They are completely benign, though they can become irritated by friction from clothing or jewelry.

Treatment Options for Warts:

Cryotherapy-

• Freezing the tag with liquid nitrogen causes it to fall off after a few days.

Excision-

• Quick office procedure where the tag is snipped off with scissors or a scalpel.

Electrosurgery-

• Burning off the skin tag using electric current. Especially useful for larger tags.

Ligation-

• Tying the base with a surgical thread to cut off blood flow, causing it to shrink and drop off.

Home Remedies & Over-the-Counter Options:

Although there are many over-the-counter and DIY options, their effectiveness can vary, and improper use may lead to infection or scarring. The FDA does not approve any OTC treatments for skin tag removal, and consulting a dermatologist before trying home remedies is highly recommended.

When to See a Dermatologist:

Consult a professional if:

• A growth changes in color, size, or shape.
• There is pain, bleeding, or signs of infection.
• You experience emotional distress due to the growth.
• OTC treatments fail to provide relief.
