[Question #7358] Genital Wart?
57 months ago
|
I noticed, what I thought was a skin tag, at the base of my penis where it meets my body.
It’s been there for at least 9 months. Hasn’t changed. I can wiggle it back and forth with my finger. It’s about a mm wide. It’s only one. Color is my skin tone. Could this be a genital wart?

Welcome to the Forum. Thanks for your question. Despite your excellent description I cannot be comfortable making a diagnosis over the internet (and pictures do not help). There is simply no substitute for a direct examination by an experienced clinician. The lesion you describe sounds much more like a simple skin tag than a wart but to be sure, I would advise you to see a dermatologist of other clinician with experience in evaluating genital lesions.
Sorry I can't be more precise. EWH
