Is Wart Normal On Scrotum Of A Child?
A 4.5 year old with one commom wart on each scrotum x 4 weeks. From what i recall, i think he may still be in diapers ( recently acquired him as a patient six months ago)No body else in the family has warts. i believe he does attend day care still 3 times a week. Takes baths but not with any body else. i have heard that you can can get flat warts on the scrotum without it being sexual abuse. Do i need to report it anyway? Or do i ask for social service consult to evaluate the situation?
