Can I pass hand warts to my genitals?

I have had two flat warts on the palm of my hands for years. I only realised what they were last year, I thought I would leave them and see if they would go on their own. However, now I am worried that because I have touched my genitals with these warts on my hands I have passed those warts down there. Google says this is both possible and impossible. I have never had sex or any kind of sexual contact with anyone else. I do not have any warts down there. Is it possible to have spread these warts to my genitals?

    The warts on your hand are different to warts on genitals so the answer is NO.

    Its not possible to pass warts from hands to genitals. Unless of course there is an open wound on both areas at the same time.
