Brief Answer:
Not likely to be a genital wart.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
I have seen the attached photo. It does not look like a genital wart. This is just a skin thickening or a skin tag. It can be due to an allergic reaction in the area if there is an associated itching.
Hope my answer is helpful.
Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries.
Regards.

No need to rush if asymptomatic.

Detailed Answer:
If it is not gradually increasing in size or is causing the symptoms then you need not worry. You can discuss about it at your regular visit to gynecologist.
