A few years back, I noticed the little raised dark wart-like bumps formed. I questioned their appearance there but never really got an answer. Since then, the number of them has grown a little. I have a small section with about four tightly grouped together, then a couple here and there in the immediately surrounding area.\u00a0 Also between the thigh and the scrotum.

If they are genital warts, they need to be removed as they are associated with cancer later in life. Even if they are skin tags, a dermatologist can remove them for you so that they won&#8217;t bother you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Question: I have been sexually active for 7 years now with about 11 different women.\u00a0 I am currently married and I stay active with my spouse.
