I am 34 yo male, 2 yrs ago and after multiple masturbations I got some skin damage with redness and burning feeling and few weeks later at the same location I noticed this small pump on my penis shaft, I thought it might be a wart and I visited a dermatologist, he told me as I had sex before with multiple partners it might be HPV and he prescribed an aldara cream, I used for 3 months and nothing happened, it is still look the same and it didnt get bigger in size, it itches sometimes. I wonder if this also could be a skin tag?

your opinion is highly appreciated

    the cream given is excellent at removing warts thy even use it to treat some skin cancer like basel call carcinoma if it hasnt removed your growth it mabe that your growth is benign and not a wart you should consult with whoever prescribed you the cream they may decide to freeze it off if they still think it mabe a wart it dosnt look like a wart looking at it tho

      Thanks! I did visit again and he suggested a cryotherapy to remove it, the idea of cryotherapy was somehow scary to me and I thought it might fall off by itself or with the help of cider vinegar but it didnt. do you recommend the cryotherapy?
