They may feel like small bumps or raised areas on the anus. Although skin tags may be sensitive, they rarely cause pain. However, skin tags can be very uncomfortable and itch. The skin around the anus is often looser than skin on other parts of the body. If a blood vessel near the anus swells or becomes enlarged, it can result in a skin tag.

Anal skin tag removal is a delicate surgery that removes skin tag growths that protrude from the anus. These tiny tumours are benign but bothersome. Skin Tags are swollen polyp-like growths with a thickened outer layer of skin and a fibrovascular core, which means that they have their own blood supply. Unpleasant indeed. Oftentimes, they are the result of friction or irritation to the skin, which reacts by forming a skin tag, also known as an acrochordon.

Anal skin tags are fleshy areas of skin that protrude from the anal area often causing irritation, hygiene issues and lowered self-confidence with their partners. The skin tags are often caused by the swelling of the skin due piles or haemorrhoids, where the skin has stretched and not quite shrunk back again, leaving a fleshy flap of skin. They are very common after childbirth, constipation and other bowel conditions such as anal fissures.
