@steven: Have you ever wondered what skin tags really mean? Dr Annette Bosworth explains that skin tags are different from moles and often appear in areas where skin rubs, like the armpits. She links their growth to higher insulin levels and warns against cutting them off because they can bleed. She also points to related skin changes, including darker thicker velvety skin on the neck or elbows, which is sometimes mistaken for dirt but can be another visible sign of high insulin, now increasingly seen in teenagers. Have you ever noticed changes like this and wondered what was behind them? #podcast #health #skintags #doctor
