Warts on skin between thigh and crotch

I recently saw my dermatologist about what I thought were skin tags on skin between thigh and crotch. He used liquid nitrogen on them and didn't make a big issue about them. I've seen different information and don't know if they are genital warts or not. Nothing has appeared on my penis or shaft but I am extremely concerned.  Could they be any other type of warts.

bacterial infection/ fungal infection or some skin nodules etc.

Are you allergic to any specific substances?

Nothing can be said with surety without having a look at the lesions.

It would be best to consult your doctor about your symptoms if they do not resolve and get a proper clinical examination.

Keep the area clean and wear clothes washed in a few drops of chlorhexidine preferably and dried in the sun.

You could take oral antihistamine or antiallergic medications for the itching.

Let us know about what your doctor advises.

Hi,

These could be common warts.

You would need a clinical examination by your doctor for the confirmed diagnosis.
