Abnormal Growths Between Vagina And Anus. Previous Pap Smear Normal. Cancer?
I have unusual growths better my Virginia and my anus. They don't pain but have grown significantly in the last 4 months. I fist noticed a small painless spot like a pimple but now they are like five and they are growing towards my anal opening. I last saw a Gyno 2years ago and had a Pap smear. The doctor said I was fine. I've not been sexually active for the last 3years. I'm scared that these growths could be cancerous.

Hi,
There is definitely a concern for you to be worried about. The possibilities that I can think of are-
- HPV (Human Papilloma Virus) infection that cause viral warts.
- Condyloma accuminata
- Benign anal skin tags.
Please get yourself evaluated on these lines.
I do not think it is cancer. However, only a biopsy could confirm this.
PAP smear is not related to these external growths.
Hope this helps you.
