Angry Skin tags

Just wondering if anybody has experienced an increase in skin tags. I have all of a sudden had a bunch more pop up. What could this mean? I changed over to gluc a few months ago, could that do it? Thanks in advance for your replies. Take care.

I have skin tags also and I started taking Gluc XR in June. I haven't noticed any increase of skin tags since I started it. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

lollipop,
Just this week I experienced an increase in skin tags also. I'm not sure what causes them.

Hello,
you're not the only one. Month ago,I had a couple of skintags under my left armpit,now I have four. I had none under my right,now I have two. And what's interesting,I started getting them around my eye,small and skin coloured. I'm worried they might get bigger
On Monday I'm removing two of the skintags under my armpit because they grew quite big over the last 2 months and I can't shave

Angela
PS. I'm not on met

I believe it has something to do with IR. Both myself and dh have some and we are both overweight. I am borderline diabetic. I seem to have gotton a few little ones on my necks , not sure how long they have been there. I just clip them, they bleed like any wound and then heal. You are supposed to go to a doc to have the larger ones removed. I just think that is so that you don't get any infection. Diabetics often have skin tags.
