Treatment typically involves either pharmacological or physical methods. Small flesh-colored growths on the scrotum may be genital warts caused by a viral infection. It is advisable to visit a hospital for evaluation; following medical advice, acyclovir tablets may be prescribed for antiviral therapy. If drug treatment proves ineffective, laser therapy or cryotherapy may be considered—both are physical treatments associated with minimal irritation and relatively rapid recovery.
