Coconut Oil and Skin Tags
I tend to look toward coconut oil when something is out of the ordinary with my body. I have a couple of skin tags that seem to be getting bigger lately but I paid no attention to them. Some of these skin tags I have had for years and they have never bothered me.
A couple of days ago, I woke up with an excruciating pain on my neck. As it turns out, something caught one of my skin tags and it started pulling off, hence the pain. I didn't know what to do. Pulling it off would be very painful. I am not a believer in bandaids and ointment so I did not want to do that. As luck would have it, I happen to remember that coconut oil is antibacterial. I am also of the belief that coconut oil fixes everything so I put coconut oil on my skin tag to see what would happen.
The coconut oil seems to be causing my skin tag to shrink not to mention that the coconut oil stopped the pain almost immediately. I can not wait to see if it eliminates the skin tag. This tag is in a prominent place on my neck so I am very hopeful that it will just go away (as burning it off would surely leave a mark on my neck).
Wish me luck!
