Guest guest Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Craig, Does this work for xanthelasma (My father, who was an optometrist, said nothing could get rid of it)? J. coconut oil for skin tags? Hi Laurie, I've had hard growths ( some say old age growths) on my arm, on the side of my face and on the crown of my head and have treated them all and removed them with coconut oil. I have one now on top of my ear that I'm doing. Just rub coconut oil on the area 1,2,or 3 times a day whenever you can and in 3-4 weeks it'll just roll off when you're applying oil. Rub the oil into the skin and don't leave oil on top the skin as it does no good and it'll just attract debris and micro organisms. Good luck.

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Hi, Laurie, We've used tea tree oil on skin tags with a lot of success. I put a little on every night; it will turn black (I know, gross) and then fall off. No pain, either. For the dry painful finger cracks, we use 'No Crack' cream; some drugstores and health food stores carry it, and it's the best I've found so far that really heals. There's a day cream (not so smelly), but we use the night cream, since it works better and faster, and the smell isn't bad. I originally ordered it from the Vermont Country Store site, in case you can't find a local source. Hope that helps!!

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Laurie: In one of Dr. Fife's books, he talks about getting rid of moles and warts by applying the oil and then covering it with one of those WATERPROOF bandages called Tegaderm. On my shoulder I had an ugly mole that was large and flat and would get caught on my clothes. I first went out and bought the waterproof bandages, then waited till I knew I was going to be home for a couple of days straight and could give this my full attention. I did not shower or get the area wet and I DEFINITELY did NOT let it get dry either. I kept it saturated with the oil, by lifting a corner of this bandage every couple of hours and sliding in more oil. Within two days it was totally gone. I would give it a try.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Bonnie: Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, this particular skin tag is anal--as in, just inside(!) I don't know if I could stick a bandage on that! But this renews my desire to use VCO as much as possible--it's already done wonders for hemmorhoids (caused by straining, caused by having system cleaned out by dental antibiotic! I'm still trying to get system back to normal) Laurie ________________________________ From: Bonnie Cole <bonnieview@...> Coconut Oil Sent: Thu, January 28, 2010 2:15:24 PM Subject: RE: coconut oil for skin tags?

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Laurie, if I'm picturing this correctly, the skin tag is hanging by a THREAD, is that correct? Get your doctor to cut it off then. Bonnie _____ From: Coconut Oil [mailto:Coconut Oil ] On Behalf Of Laurie Adler Sent: January 28, 2010 4:03 PM Coconut Oil Subject: Re: coconut oil for skin tags?
