Built in 1982 and expanded in 1991, Markvilleâs name is derived from a combination of the names Markham and Unionville, communities that were considered less than cosmopolitan three decades ago.
Warts tend to be rougher, with a âwartyâ irregular surface whereas skin tags are usually smooth. Warts tend to be flat whereas tags are more like bumps hanging from thin stalk. While warts are almost entirely caused by human papilloma virus (HPV), tags are only sometimes associated with HPV.
Since the groin and under the arms are the more common places of many that body skin tags are seen it is thought that the rubbing together of the arms and genital area can cause chaffing which can dry and irritate the skin.
