Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hi. Thanks for posting your concern at Healthcaremagic

After going through your query I would keep a possibility of either condyloma acuminata(genital warts) OR Molluscum contagiosum considering that the lesions are painless and probably are sexually acquired.

I would certainly advice that you see a dermatologist for a confirmatory diagnosis.

Warts in the genital area presents as asymptomatic, fleshy, cauliflower shaped growths. They are caused by HPV virus.


Whereas molluscum lesions are pearly white asymptomatic papules and they are characterised by a central dent/umblication. They are caused by molluscum contagiosum virus.

Treatment of both is the same. Destruction of individual lesion with either cautery or CO2 Laser. Both can also be treated by topical imiquimod applications.

regards
