Different habitat: Warts actually come from more than 100 different virus types - so what this means, is it's very unlikely that warts that live in the genital tract will spread to 'non-genital' areas. If the genital warts bother you - you can easily see a doctor who can get rid of them for you. The old fashioned way is 'ablation' which means destruction. There is a cream available called imiquimod. See ID doc pls.
