worried about hpv

I had protected sex with a woman over a year ago. Back on March 14, 2016, a different female straddled me and we grinded unclothed for about 2-3 minutes. We did not have sex because honestly I had masturbated a few hours before and could not get an erection. I did have a condom on so I had a semi erection. Around May 19, 2016, or a little before I noticed a growth in my groin fold. I went to a dermatologist and he said it was a seborrheic keratosis and froze it off because it was irritated where I had been messing with it and where my skin rubs together in the groin fold. I have a history of having those in the groin area, most recently being back in 2010. The two in 2010 were biopsied and given hpv staining. All came back good and they were diagnosed as seborrheic keratosis. I have another one underneath my ball sack that another dermatologist in the same practice diagnosed as a SK. I also have several skin tags that were diagnosed by the same dermatologist. The skin tags were like dangling pieces of skin but the keratosis are more flat. The first dermatologist said he was 99.9% sure that the place in my groin fold was not a genital wart.

Should i be worried about genital warts?

What is the likelihood you would get a single wart on the groin fold and no where else?

The chances are extremely low given the sex encounters you mentioned. Warts can appear anywhere there is genital skin. I think you are one of those people who get a lot of SKs.
