hello,
Thanks for the query,
Yes, these could be genital warts.
Genital warts are caused by human papillomavirus (HPV). It is spread through direct skin-to-skin contact during oral, genital, or anal sex with an infected partner.
Surgical excision can be done but has a greater risk of scarring. other alternative is Electrocauterization .
regards,
Dr Nilofer
