To see my GP about spots on hand or not?

About a week ago I noticed a red dot on the palm of my hand and thought nothing of it. The next day I noticed another small dot maybe 1cm below it. Fast forward a few days and both of these spots have turned into larger paler, brownish/yellow spots (colour varies depending on if my hands are hot, cold etc.) with a small brown region in the middle of them. They are quite round but the first spot has a smaller circle kinda coming off it. They look flat but if you run your finger over them you can tell there are bumps there and the skin feels a bit rougher.

I have (obviously) been keeping an eye on them and they seem to have stopped changing now. I'm wondering if I should go to my GP next week and have them seen two if they haven't gone away yet. In the past I have had similar lumps appear on my wrists and went to the GP about them and they said it was just warts or cysts (can't remember) and they eventually went away. This is the first time I've had this on my hand so I'm wondering if I should just wait or it's worth making an appointment?

Thanks guys

I would pop into a pharmacy first. They should have a private room you can go into to show them if you're embarrassed or anything.
They're trained to deal with a whole bunch of stuff and should be able to confirm if it is the same stuff or if you need to see a doctor.
Obviously going into a pharmacy is way quicker than waiting to see GP and you're not exactly delaying things by seeing them first. Always worth going to a pharmacy first if you're not sure.

Also at least until you have it confirmed what they are try to avoid contact with other people. Don't want to give anybody else warts. What you've described sounds like it could be warts to me.
Try to use gloves or your sleeves when touching stuff and don't shake anybodys hands (or other body parts!).

I second going to a pharmacy, but advice to wear gloves seems OTT. Warts can last for years and over the counter treatments and even getting them frozen off (if your GP even does that - loads either don't, or have waiting lists that are months long) often doesn't get rid of them. Warts are not dangerous, and getting paranoid about them to the point of not touching anything without gloves seems a little unhealthy and unnecessary.
