Suggest Tests To Diagnose Genital Warts

I'm in need of help. I think my husband of 20 years may ha e cheated on me. He recently was googling "what do gentile warts look like" saying he was just curious. However, me being more curious I took a look at my own area, & noticed things different, and I see what could be warts. I'm not sure if I'm over reacting, paranoid, or just seeing natural changes from age.

Thanks for contacting HCM with your health concern

1. If one is too concerned with her health then you must undergo a gynecological exam [ since genital herpes/warts are usually diagnosed by visual examination] for PAP test or biopsy [ screening for abnormal cells on the cervix] and even though there might not be any visible warts, results may indicate an HPV infection

2. Since the warts are often difficult to detect, thus your doctor may apply a mild acetic acid solution [vinegar] to your genitals to whiten any warts. and then view them under colposcope.
