Is it normal to have small warty moles on your rectum?
It is not possible to say without seeing them, speaking with you, and knowing your past medical history. "Warty moles" is a helpful description, but not specific enough to say whether they are normal or abnormal. (Also, by "rectum" we presume you mean the perianal area, however this is a misunderstanding of the term. The rectum is actually one of the last segments of the large intestine, and therefore is inside the body.) Your description might be consistent with perianal warts caused by infection with human papillomavirus (HPV). These are pesky, but are not generally cause for concern. "Warty moles" may also describe perianal skin tags. These are very common, and generally thought to be benign, although they too can be bothersome. In some cases, perianal skin tags are associated with Crohn disease, a type of inflammatory bowel disease. There are many other possibilities. Information taken from WikiAnswers, while provided with the best intentions, is not meant to be construed as medical advice. The only advice we give is that you speak with a clinician, who can evaluate your concerns in the proper clinical context.
