Worried I might have genital warts now.

Posted , 4 users are following.

Just came back from a sti testing and didn't notice these until I got back. They honestly may have been there forever because they are pretty small. But of course I got paranoid again and shaved and looked around and saw these. Any idea if I need to go back or are these not genital warts?

    The flash makes them seem lighter. Without it they are pretty dark. No idea what they are and if I should be worried.

    Hi John

    Its around 2 years that I have the same issue. I showed them to a dermatologist in New Zealand and he said they are nothing to be worried of, they are not genital warts and not contagious at all he insisted. They are not itchy by themseves but they grow beside eachy areas under and on the sides of scrotum as well as on the penis shaft. If you search more on your body you will probably find out there are some tiny red spots on different parts of your body too and the number of brown spots on your body has been proliferated, is it correct? The dermatologist prescribed me Clobetasol+Miconasole to apply on them for a month once per day as well as some soap substitute. During the time I was using the medicines I felt no itches and all symptoms except those brown bumps disappeared but after 1 or two weeks with no medicines applied my skin became itchy again. The dermatologist said they are some kind of eczema called "Seborrheic Keratosis" which is caused by changes in weather conditions, stress and foods. I have immigrated from a dry country to NZ which is humid and I did have some stress too. In addition to these I have started drinking coffee and smoking new sort of cigarettes. Let me know if you have the same symptoms as I have and if you have found any cure for it so we can share our experiences.

    They defiantly look like small warts, my friend had warts and they looked exactly the same. My advice to you is to get them frozen off, after that they shouldn’t return.
