Hi,
It can be due to Human papillomavirus (HPV). Did you have any unprotected sex? You need to confirm the infection by lab investigation and start antiviral if it comes as positive. Share a picture for confirmation.
I hope I have answered your query. If you have further doubts, I would be happy to help you.
