possibly skin tags or warts?

I have been with the same woman for the last 2 1/2 years. Ive had these raised skin things on my penis for some time now. I just recently went to the health dept. and got checked for STDs. As soon as the woman looked at my penis she imediatly said I have genital warts- no test on it or anything. My fiance has never had any kind of skin things on her. The health dept. gave me aldara which I have been applying daily since then-OCT 30. Well now the things are red, hard, and hurt. At the office she did do the whole q-tip thing to "test for other stds" and has yet to get the results back. I have just recently found out about something called skin tags on the internet. My question is "Is there anyway that she was wrong by her sight diagnostics and it just be skin tags since she just looked at them and Ive read that they are very similar in apparences? We live in a very small town and the nurse or whatever may not have heard of them. Please respond as I am very worried and confused. When she gets the results in from the q-tip will I find out for sure then or dose she need to do a test other than sight just for genital warts?
