Delaney has a small skin tag in the middle of her thigh...this just showed up over the matter of a couple day. Usually when I get skin tags, I cut them off with nail clippers, but I don't think I want to do that to her. Has anyone had these with your children, and what did you do?

Never had them on my kids, but the doc can give them a quick snip and make sure they don't get infected.

On the rare occasion it's something more serious so when it doubt, get it checked out. Esp when it comes to your kids.

I guess I'm not sure what a skin tag is?

like the name suggests, it's a little encapsulated tag of skin.

Usually they're nothing but every once in a great while it's a bud of a bigger cancer that you can't see.
