I've had this small skin tag near my anus for about 23 years. It's not a hemorrhoid because it doesnt hurt, but it does swell up a bit during bowel movements. Im really curious to know if this is actually a skin tag or if it could be something else. Also, how can I get it removed?

I'm 25 and I've noticed these two yellowish deposits near my right eye. I'm pretty sure they're called xanthelasma. I'm a bit worried and just want to know what these are exactly and how I might be able to get rid of them. Are there any effective treatments or procedures I should consider?

Xanthelasma can be treated with the help of topical medications containing trichloroacetic acid or chemical peels. In some cases, cryotherapy or laser therapy may be recommended to remove the deposits. It is important to consult a dermatologist for proper evaluation and treatment.
