I have a ugly skin tag on my neck… are there any natural ways to get rid of it? Do they actually work?

I recently had a mole removed from the middle of my back that had all three danager signs. It started to turn black in the middle, it was a little asymytrical, and right at the size of a pencil eraser. Just curiouse how often a mole with all three signs turns out to be cancer. I think I caught it pretty quick, my wife noticed it. I don’t know if it was caused by a recent sun burn, being scrathced will under my car, or if it just started to turn on its own. Still waiting on test results.

I am 14 and I have moles on my body. They are not like skin tags but like little circles that are black/brown. I have 2 on my stomache and a few on my neck. Also one on my armpit :(
I really dislike them and use scarves, jewerly, etc to cover them up. Summer is coming and I was wondering how can I get rid of them? Any creams that work well? Surgery? I am afraid though that if they do come off, I will have blotchy spots on my skin. My parents are willing to spend almost any amount of money to get rid of them(well not any amount but a reasonable price)

So is there any way of how I can get rid of them? The cheaper the better. The less painful the better. Also if u can give me links to any websites, that would be great.

Thanks in advance!!

My husband and I think our dog might have cancer. She has had a pea-sized mole on her shoulder since she was 1 or 2. We took her to the vet to make sure it was ok, and he said it was fine as long as it didn’t grow. If it grew, it could mean she has cancer.

She’s 8 now, and I just noticed the other day her mole had nearly doubled in size, and isn’t as symmetrical and round as it was.. its more flat now and looks a lot like a mushroom.

On top of that, her breathing has been getting heavier and more shallow. She’ll let out these violent coughs, than pant/gasp for a while.

We already have a vet appointment scheduled for a whole bunch of tests.. but I wanted to know:

What types of treatments are out there for dogs with cancer? Does she stand a good chance?
Just the facts: Did you really just drop in to insult me? Did I say that I was going to let my dog suffer, or spend "thousands of dollars on painful treatments"? No. But I also don’t KILL my dog without seeing if whatever she has is treatable. Get a life, troll.

Black or brown spots (or small swellings) or the body are called moles and freckles. What is the difference between moles and freckles? Is mole is for small growths and freckles for small spots?
