Slender like skin tag on lip

Posted by shimmer86 @shimmer86, Aug 25, 2019

I noticed today my stepson 15 has a slender like skin tag on his upper lip close to the corner of his mouth. He says it has been there awhile and thinks it is a wart. He tends to get warts on fingers, knees, and elbows. Should I be concerned it is something else? It doesnt look sore. Its skin color and favors a skin tag like you would see on your neck.

Hi @shimmer86, here is more information on skin tags and warts: https://www.epiphanydermatology.com/blog/how-to-tell-the-difference-between-skin-tags-moles-warts/

You mentioned that your stepson has had warts before, does it look similar to a wart he has had before or different?
