Help! Do Warts On The Hands Cause Warts On The Genitals?

I have warts on my palm and on a fingertip. I am constantly picking at them and hoping they will go away. Can this cause genital warts? I know they are both caused by the HPV virus and that REALLY freaks me out. I have a virus?!? And ALL warts are caused by HPV…even in children?

    No, i don’t think so… But you can remove the warts on your hand by visiting a doctor and this procedure is call, cryosurgy.

    No, HPV is a complete different strand of virus than just your normal wart, but regular warts on your hand can be transmitted, not necessarily sexually, but with normal everyday contact.
