Although the most common symptom of all sexually transmitted infections and diseases (STIs/STDs) is no symptom at all, when someone contracts a low-risk strain of the human papillomavirus (HPV), they can experience what are often referred to as 'cauliflower-like' growths on their skin - otherwise known as genital warts. *
Low-risk strains of HPV do not lead to cancer, as is the concern with high-risk strains of HPV, but they can still result in unpleasant symptoms such as growths or warts on the skin. Those warts have a tendency to resemble small clumps of cauliflower. Although they are usually pain-free, they can be slightly itchy, and a bit unsightly.

For most people, over time (6 months to 2 years), one's immune system will clear the infection on its own. However, caution is still necessary, because even when the warts have cleared, the infection may still be present in the body and transmittable to others.

Some other STIs that can cause bumps include herpes and molluscum, but their appearance is different and doesn't usually resemble the cauliflower-like structure like low-risk HPV/genital warts.
