Are Skin Tags Contagious?

No, skin tags are not contagious. They are benign growths on the skin caused by friction or rubbing of the skin. Viruses or bacteria do not cause them and cannot be transferred through contact. However, people may be more likely to develop skin tags if they have a family history of them, are overweight, or have certain medical conditions.
