Thank you for query. I am Dr Bharatesh D Basti answering your query.

Welcome to health care magic.I have gone through the details and photo.
It appears to be due to warts.It is due to HPV (Human papilloma virus infection).
It may be transmitted as STDs or by skin to skin contact.
You can consult your doctor for treatment options like Topical Podophyllin resin.(Podowart), or Cauterisation .
You may need to undergo STDs tests, if you have history of risk exposure.

You can get back for any clarifications.

It is better to consult your doctor for examination and management.

I would have advised PODOWART-S lotion to be applied under proper precautions.It needs medical supervision while application.

Warts are benign.They do not undergo malignant change or form cancer.
