    What is a banjo string?

    All warts are infectious.

    Ahhh! Genital warts..

    Warts look like a raised area or bump on the skin. HOWEVER, normal penises have lumps and bumps anyway.

    Do a search on images_res.gif and put in Genital Warts as the search criteria.

    WARNING: There will be graphic images of "banjo strings"

    If you are worried that you might have an infection the best thing to do is get checked out immediately at a GUM clinic. No amount of looking at pictures will give you a proper diagnosis.

    To find your nearest GUM clinic, click here. If you are worried about what to expect this FAQ will tell you more.

    You should also read our factsheet about genitla warts.

    You don't give much info about your situation, but just to be clear, the only way to make sure you don't have this fear again is to make sure you always practise safe sex - with a condom.
