There is little pain associated with it at all. I have cut or pulled small pieces from this lump, to discover hardened spongy-like tissue. After attempting to cut this lump, it reappears in the same place and grows yet again. There are several skin lesions that can affect the penis and glans. In adults this infection is most commonly transmitted sexually.
Genital warts are very common and are increasing in incidence.
Safe sex practices, such as using condoms can help decrease the risk of infection. Treatment includes several topical agents to eradicate the lesions, cryosurgery, laser therapy, electrocauterization, or surgical removal.
