possibly hpv?? - Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Message Board

Probably about a year ago I noticed 2 strange brown tiny bumps on my vagina lips, I didnt think nothing of it because they did not bother me... until recently. Uhmm I'd say about a month ago I noticed some pain down there and a few blood spots on my panties, but thought that I had cut myself from shaving until.... a few days ago I was in the shower and felt some bumps and looked at them, now there was more than 2, like 7 now and I read on the net that warts are flesh colored but these are brownish. But I'm thinking that its HPV and I dont have any health insurance nor is there a Planned Parenthood in my town, and I dont have a car, I rely on my brother. So could someone please give me some advise/info about these brownish bumps. Thank you for reading this.

Hey, I noticed once that I had a bump that was skin colored between my vagina and my anus and then I noticed more bumps. I went to the gyno thinking I might have hpv and they did a biopsy and it came back negative. It turns out that I am prone to skin tags. I read on the internet that if you take 400mcg of chromium picolinate a day that after a month they should start to go away. They were right, mine went away but if you stop taking it they will start to come back. If you or other family members have skin tags this might be what you have. Skin tags develope wherever there are creases in you body or whereever your skin gets rubbed alot. I think mine started from wearing thongs all of the time. I would go to the doctor just to be safe but you may have nothing to worry about.
