    Hi to be honest they look like skin tags but get them checked out anyway in case they are warts.

    Probably warts. You should get them diagnosed, as the treatment for skin tags is totally different. If skin tags, I can recommend Tagbands,  available from Amazon US or UK. I didn't have to use them in the genital area, but took the risk of applying one just below the eye (against TagBand advice) and it worked without too much discomfort. Takes 3 or so weeks for the tag to drop off, but the result was excellent.

    On second thought considering the amount of them I think theyre defo warts.

    I'm not sure, but if they've appeared recently, then they're probably warts.  You should definitely get checked out.  The virus can lie dormant for many years and is very common, so either (or both) of you could have got it before you ever met.

    You could either see your GP, or if you're in the UK, you could get an appointment faster at a genitourinary medicine (GUM) clinic - google "GUM clinic near me" for details.

    If you could update this thread and tell us what the doctors say, it would be appreciated.  Good luck.

    Did you see a doctor, and if so, what did they say?
