How Can A Skin Tag Around The Anus Be Removed?

So like on my ass hole (I don’t know the proper term) is something like a skin tag except it’s always been there. It doesn’t hurt and I’ve always had it. Like when I poop it’s just almost like it’s suppose to be on the inside but slipped out. It’s just pink and almost looks like a tail and I’m trying to be sexually active but I can’t because that’s really embarrassing and weird. I don’t know what to call it so I can’t even look up treatments. And I’m scared to go the doctor for it because I want to be waxed first but I’m scared to be waxed because I don’t want them to see that so do you see my dilemma

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I can understand your concern for skin tag in anal area, which is embarrassing you and leading to discomfort. It may be sentinel piles. Consult the dermatologist or surgeon for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. There is no need to worry. It may be removed surgically under local anesthesia.

Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. We will be happy to answer your questions.

Regards.
