Hi. I have noticed some white colored bumps near my testicles, and I have one that is larger, and the other few are very small. I was wondering if it was safe to use an over the counter wart remover such as "duofilm" it is like "Compound W" I already applied it twice and need to know if I should stop.
Over the counter is all I can get because I am only 17 years old, and cant order with a credit card.
So if I can stand the pain of the duoflex is it safe to use? Will it leave scarring or any kind of bumps? Thanks a lot for any help because I really need it!

I personally have never heard of either of those, but they should be safe enough to use if that's what you have and that's what they're for. But I would suggest going to your doctor and getting the bumps checked out before you try over the counter stuff though. But that's just my opinion! Take care, Sakura xxx

you can go to the health department and have it checked out without anyone knowing.

I know this thread is a year and 1/2 old but just in case people are searching, I thought there should be a defnitive answer.
No.
All OTC products are for foot and hand warts only. And those work by either literally eating away the wart (salicylic acid) or freezing it (dimethyl ether and propane). These are NOT safe to use on or even near the genitals.
There are Rx products speicifically for genital warts, please see a Doctor or go to a clinic.
Take care
