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.
