Hi
Thanks for being at healthcaremagic
I am Dr Asmeet Kaur Sawhney, a dermatologist.
I have reviewed the attached photographs and these are looking like plane warts.
I would recommend you to consult a dermatologist and get them removed by either electrocautery or chemical cautery.

Should I be concerned if I don't get them removed soon? They haven't changed in size. They don't hurt or itch.

Brief Answer:
No need to remove them in emergency but get them removed electively

Detailed Answer:
If the person has a good immunity there are less chances of these spreading.
That's why only 2 are present on your penile skin for a long time.
No need to get them removed in emergency but in the long run they can increase in size or number.
So the ultimate treatment is removing them electively either by electrocautery or chemical cautery.
