What causes Skin Tags? Is it something lacking in our bodies?

Answer #1

Hi,

It is not know what causes skin tags. However, the following factors may play a role:

* Chaffing and irritation from skin rubbing together
* High levels of growth factors, particularly during pregnancy or in acrogmegaly (gigantism)
* Insulin resistance (syndrome X)
* Human papilloma virus (wart virus)
