Answer 1

my neighbors horse had these, it turned out it was a infection, they happen in any age horse and sound exactly as you explain. Call your vet, they will need to be removed because other horses can get them and the infection IS dangerous. Horses DONT get warts. It won't cost much to remove, he might surgely remove them or you might recieve medicene for them
