Com'on guys, if you catch them early, the root is about the size of a mosquito proboscis, they tear/snip right off. I don't even bother with antiseptic.
Did I tell you how I cured Shingles on my left ankle and down along the inboard sides of the foot? Hah. I got so tired of the pain, I thought nothing could be worse. The patch was growing every week. I went out to the garage and looked around at what chemicals I had, and lined a few of them up.
First up was Varsol/paint thinner. I smeared it on full strength and kept it wet for several minutes, and repeated that several times during the day. Yikes does that burn on red meat.
A few days later, the results were in; a thin layer of skin began to grow over the meat.
I'm so glad that the first-up Varsol did the trick, cuz some of those other chemicals looked to be pretty nasty.
That was in the late 80s, and I haven't seen shingles since. It runs in my Dad's Family.
Skintags are nothing.
But listen-up, Just cuz I don't get infections doesn't mean you can be as casual about breaks in your skin. It seems around here, I am special. I'd like to tell you why that is and how it came to be; but you probably already know it.
Skintags are nothing; snipit,clipit,or ripit, and for you guys, dress it,lol.
