Genital warts or something else?
Posted , 2 users are following.
Shaved a few weeks ago and later noticed these spots. Concerned that they could be warts, as I figured ingrowns, pimples or folliculitis would be gone by now. I haven’t had sex since Dec 2019, but read that warts could appear up to a year later.
I had a couple on the base of my penis, and as high as my belt line. There were about 10 or so spread out between those areas. i trimmed the hair a the bump to help with visibility, you can also see where i removed the other bumps
I do have flat warts on my wrist, and have had plantar warts before. I tried to scratch the new bumps on my groin and they turned red. I ended up trying a pimple popper and they came off and there was a bit of blood. The piece that came off was tiny and white. I did try the pimple popper on my other warts and literally nothing happened, no discoloration or removal. I just don’t know about genital warts and thought maybe they would come off easier?
Any thoughts would be great.
