We have different skin conditions and types of skins, due to which we come across various skin conditions. Mole, skin tags and warts are the common concerns which people have. These three skin problems might look similar to you however to get better understanding lets us learn about them separately.
Mole – Moles (nevi) are a common type of skin growth. These spots are small and brown in colour. They can appear on face, stomach, legs or even on the arms. During the childhood you may see them on your body. Certain moles have the ability to change their colour, size, and texture over time. The growth of certain populations may be slowed due to sun exposure. Moles can become serious if they become cancerous. Therefore, it’s more advantageous to remove it from the skin promptly before it becomes harmful.
Skin tags – A skin tag is a small ball of skin which hangs off the surface of the skin. It may appear on the skin anywhere, including the lids, neck, armpits, groins and upper chest. Skin tags are benign growths that commonly occur in areas where skin rubs against skin. However, it is more frequent in areas prone to rubbing, such as the armpits. It could cause inflammation and potentially lead to bleeding due to the skin being irritated. A common occurrence in adults is skin tags, and those with diabetes or obesity are more likely to have them.
Warts – Warts can appear on the skin due to infections, which can develop in any part of the body and can affect the skin Treatment options for warts may include cryotherapy (freezing), laser therapy, and topical medications.
