What Causes Skin Tags At The Tip Of Penile Foreskin?

I have two skin tags on the left hand side of my penis, at the very tip of the foreskin! I have been with one sexual partner for a year so would be very surprised if it s an STD but was told from a friend genital warts could take up to two years before visible? Also our sexual life does get rough so there is a potential chance of skin being damage but nothing I have noticed

Hi, it does not sound like an STD by your description, but it is always better to be safe than sorry. Therefore, I suggest you see a Dermatologist who can examine you and advice whether you need any more investigations or not. Without examining you it is difficult to say what it is.
Do not worry and get it examined. At least you will be rest assured that all is fine. And also try and keep the activities as natural as possible to avoid unnatural injuries and diseases.
Take care,
