View allI've noticed 34 painless bumps in my genital area that seem to be spreading. Should I consider surgery to remove them?
It's crucial to see a doctor for these genital bumps, especially if they are spreading. While they could be harmless, such as skin tags or ingrown hairs, they could also be a sign of a sexually transmitted infection (STI) like genital warts or molluscum contagiosum. Surgery isn't always the first or best approach, and a doctor can determine the cause and recommend the most appropriate treatment, which might include medication, freezing, or other methods.

I've been concerned because I recently noticed a small white patch near my butt crack area. I'm not entirely sure what it is or if it's something I should be worried about. Do you think it needs a hospital visit, or is it something I can take care of at home?
