A skin-tag is a remnant of the foreskin left hanging free after circumcision. (And if you think that such a tag might serve to stimulate a sexual partner, just think what a whole foreskin could do!) Small blemishes like these are never counted among the costs of circumcision.

The owner of his little mess may never have realised that his circumcision was to blame for it.

A milder version of the same blemish.
The dark line indicates a Gomco clamp was used.
