no itching new bumps growing
Brief Answer:
Bowenoid papulosis is a possibility
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Most likely it is bowenoid papulosis. I would suggest a skin biopsy from one of the lesions to confirm the diagnosis. It is caused by HPV infection. The lesions of bowenoid papulosis can be treated with either laser or electrodessication. Recurrence is common and need to be looked for and treated similarly.
