Although skin tags are common and harmless, they can be removed if they become bothersome. GP Dr Gill Jenkins says skin tags can vary in colour and size, ranging from a few millimetres up to 5cm wide. “Sometimes they can look like warts, however, more often than not they’re smoother and softer and they tend to hang off the skin.
