I've noticed that my dad has had this wart under his right armpit for quite a while now, maybe a few years. It doesn't bother him since it's not painful, red, or itchy. But the other day, he found another wart under his left armpit. This one hurts when he touches it, although it isn't red or itchy, and there's no pus. Could these warts be a sign of something more serious? Do you think he needs to get it checked out soon?
