Why have I developed a brown tag bump on my stomach?

Brown tag bump on stomach

1 Answer

Answered on 10th June '24

These lumps, also known as skin tags, are quite harmless. Skin tags are little soft fleshy growths that can develop on the skin. Though generally painless, skin tags may sometimes become irritated by clothes or jewelry catching on them. The exact cause for these tags is unknown, but it may be due to friction from rubbing against other areas or hormonal changes during pregnancy or puberty. If you find the skin tag bothersome, do not worry as they can easily be removed through simple procedures done by a dermatologist. Keep an eye on it and if there is anything about its size/color/shape that worries you or is different from what was there before.

Hello, I’m 24 years old and would like to know if I have to be concerned using an aluminum based antiperspirant

Female | 24

It's natural to be anxious over the question of whether aluminum compounds used in antiperspirants are safe for your health. Some are jittery about the information they read which might suggest there is a health issue. However, the majority of studies confirm that there is no such evidence of the relationship between antiperspirants with aluminum and health risks. If you notice any itching, rash, or irritation, try switching to an aluminum-free option.

Have infection on my testcial skin and between my leg

Male | 31

This infection occurs when the skin is invaded by bacteria or fungus. Itching, redness, and pain are some symptoms that may be experienced. Keeping the area clean and dry could be helpful. You might require an anti-fungal or antibiotic cream from the pharmacy store. Put on loose clothes to allow your skin to breathe and facilitate healing.
