Are The Bumps Different From Warts Since The Wart Medications Are Not Working?

Hi, I have had hpv with warts and have been treated about 4 months ago. I have recently noticed a small single bump that does not look like the other warts I have had. This is much smaller, almost the size of a pin head. Anyways I used my prescription medicine to try and treat the area by myself for two sessions. One the scab goes away the bump remains.. Is there any way this is not a wart?

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic,
All warty looking lesions are not warts. Yes there is a chance that this lesion may not be a wart. Without an opportunity to closely examine the lesion, I would not be able to accurately specify the condition. You might need to consider a consultation with dermatologist for diagnosis.
Take care.
