Do hair boils in pubic area get mistaken for gential warts?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely: The appearance of warts and boils are distinctly different. An expert in skin diseases should have trouble distinquishing the two conditions. Genital warts look like warts would and boils are inflammed tender bumps.
