Skin tags are not corns, as skin tags are a type of common wart caused by a viral infection, often related to local pressure or injury, but the two conditions have different factors. Corns are more likely to be caused by a fungal infection, while skin tags are more likely associated with viral infections. Skin tags are mainly related to issues with the immune system. The appearance of skin tags can also be influenced by external factors such as local pressure, friction, and injury. The treatment methods for these conditions are similar, yet this does not mean they are the same disease. It is necessary to understand the different mechanisms and causes of each condition and then address them with appropriate treatment methods.
