So, around March I noticed these
two small bumps on my penis shaft. I became concerned and went to the health center at my University to get the bumps checked out. I informed the doctor that I have been sexually active with only one partner, who has been checked for STD’s before we started dating and was negative of everything. However I have had partners in the past.
The doctor told me that the bumps were 100% not herpes and that they were Mollscum Contagiosum. She prescribed me Imiquimod cream to apply three times a week. I lost the cream and was frankly just too impatient to use it, I wanted the molluscum to be frozen off with cryotherapy. They were frozen off and successfully healed but even the day of the therapy I noticed that she missed one of the mollscum bumps and I still currently have it to this day.
I am just getting anxiety about her diagnosis. How difficult is it to misdiagnose mollscum? Is it easily mistaken for genital warts? If she were to examine the region and confidently say that they were molluscum, is there
still a chance that she is wrong and that the bumps are HPV Genital Warts? What is the margin for error in terms of making this type of diagnosis. HELP!!!
