Skin Tags Or Genital Warts
Posted: 05-11-06 10:34am

My partner develop what appeared to be a genital wart on the shaft of his penis. He went to his pcp and he said it was a skin tag. Both of us work in the medical field, and it does not look like a skin tag. It is odly shaped, with rough edges, raised, and the coloring is similar if not the same as his skin color. There is no pain to the area.
Could you please help??
Also, I just had a pap and it came back normal, would it show the hpv virus?

Honestly, I would look for a second opinion. When I got my first bump down there a doctor told me it was a skin tag. A year later it had doubled in size and I got several smaller ones. I went to a different doctor and was positively diagnosed with warts.
