Here are some...: The described scenario provided insufficient detail and relevance so it's hard to offer a definite answer. Yet, clinically & occasionally, HPV-related lesion may evolve in color and size to reflect personal immune ability for healing. To confirm, biopsy is needed so to assure if a HPV or just seborrheic keratosis or a mole. So, seek timely evaluation and counseling.
