Posted on Tue, 4 Nov 2014
Question: I have a mole looking thing growing in my pubic area. Been there for about 5 years. Now a tiny one is growing close to it. The bigger one lifts from the skin a little, not of regular shape. I dont know if this is a wart? Mole? Skin tag?

wart

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query and photos.
It is looking like a viral wart. The best treatment is to remove it.
Please meet a dermatologist, it can be easily removed using a radio frequency ablator. Let me know if you have any other doubts.

If i dont have it removed, will it spread or become worse? Is there a reason a smaller one is now there? The big one has been there about 5 years and the small one about 6 months

Brief Answer:
Nothing to worry

Detailed Answer:
Hello
It is a self limiting thing.
There is no fixed time gap in which these lesions appear.
A single lesion may remain for years and suddenly few more can appear.
Removal will give you faster relief and mental satisfaction.
Dont worry it wont spread even if you leave it like that.
But I suggest to go for removal as it is a very small procedure taking not more than 10 minutes.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you
