Skin tag on penis

I have noticed a skin tag on my penis?  How could I have gotten this?  Is it contagious?  Is it something to be concerned about?
Thanks

You need to have this looked at to find out what it is. What you are considering a skin tag, could be something else and needs proper medical evaluation.

It's probably an artifact of your circumcision. Are you circumcised? Skin tags and bridges are a common complication of this procedure.

Skin tags can occur anywhere on the body. Why would you ask on a herpes forum? It's a dermatological condition, not at all related to STDs.

See a dermatologist if it bothers you.
