Greetings. More likely to be molluscum contagiosum accr to photo sent. Hope you are practising safe sexual practices. Please see a qualified dermatologist near you for an evaluation, esp if you have had any high risk exposure and if sexual transmission is suspected. The lesion can be treated with needling / rf or CO2 laser ablation or by topicals. Warm regards, Dr Govind Suresh Mittal.
