Skin tags, HPV, Genital Warts?? HELP!!!!

Hi,
   Hi my BF recently developed bumps on the base of his penis. I never had or seen anything like this so  at first I had thought that they were an STD like genital warts or something relating to HPV but now they look more like skin tags...im not exactly sure and i was wondering if anyone else has had this problem before and could help us out. Thanks a bunch.

They could be either, and we don't need to see a pic as we can't diagnose you.

The only way to find out is to have him see a doctor, and have them biopsied.

You didn't include a picture nor a detailed description of the bumps. Do they hurt? What color, constituency, etc?

No one can help you unless you give details.
