Don: I have the weirdest 2 looking mole 3 under my arm.
Yael: Hold it. Put that arm back down. I don't want to see your weird 1 mole. Why don't you just tell me what's weird about it?
D: Well, it's not a round dot like my other moles 4, but more like a flesh-colored raisin 5. The way it's attached to my skin, it stretches outward like a tiny appendage 6.
Y: It sounds like you're talking about a skin tag, not a mole. It's a common mistake to confuse the two. The scientific term for a skin tag is acrochordon, and it's simply a flesh-colored growth that hangs from the skin by a thin piece of tissue called a stalk. They're more common as people age, especially in women.
D: What causes it?
Y: What causes skin tags is unknown, but they do appear more frequently in areas where the skin is rubbed by clothing or by other body parts, such as in creases 7 like your underarm. They also tend to appear in hot, moist places such as under the breasts, between the thighs 8, or around the genitals.
D: Please tell me I don't have to get these things checked for cancer like I do with my moles.
Y: I have good news and bad news.
D: Give me the good news.
Y: Skin tags are never cancerous.
D: That is good news. But then, I can't imagine what the bad news is.
Y: Because people so often confuse moles for skin tags, you should monitor them just as you do your moles. If you notice changes or anything that would be suspicious in a mole, you should have your doctor check it.
