Hi... For a while now I have 3 bumps on my scrotum. They have been there for a while and assumed they were warts and was so embarrasse dabout it. There are 3. I looked information on the internet to get information but when I went to my doctor he said they were systs. Is there any medicine I can take to get rid of them? If I out it between my fingers and squeeze it is very hard. What can I do to get rid of this?? Thanks for your help.
After purchasing a magnafying glass I observed a dimpled section on each and every spot I've located...They seem to be whiter in the center after showering or whenever they're wet...
Genital warts don't dimple. They may be molluscum warts, which usually are not STD'd. Please don't try to diagnose these yourself.
Thanks.

It sounds as though these may be molluscum warts. These are not caused by the same virus which causes ordinary genital warts. They are common, occur in children and adults, and despite their full name (molluscum contagiosum) hardly ever are present in family and sexual contacts. They are listed as a possible STD, but that is rare, in my experience. They can treated with acids or liquid nitrogen, or you can just wait them to go away, which usually takes several months.
Of course, you need a proper diagnosis, so you should get them looked at to be sure.
Take care.
