Hello and welcome to HCM,
Bumps on the genital region raises the possibility of human papilloma virus (HPV) infection.
However, a clinical assessment and relevant investigations are required to diagnose the condition.
Biopsy of the lesion may be required for diagnosis and thus management.
Thanks and take care
