HPV/ Gential warts

Me and my husband has had HPV, and he has had a gential wart before about 8 years ago or so the health dept said (they burnt it off and came back within a matter of a few months dont know if it was in the same spot or not, but he hasnt had anymore problems that I know of. He use something over the internet that got a good reply). Once it clear up we have had unprotected sex ever since. Is it a good chance for me to have a spot to come up 8year later and it be a gential wart? To be honest I can't be 100% sure how long I have had it becasue I thought that it kept going away but to be honest I dont think it was. When I start my period is when I really notice it and shortly after I am off is when I dont see it so much. Its like it grows and then shrinks if that can happen to wart. I have read that gential skin tags can but if I had have HPV is it like lt to be a gential wart?The only reason why I know its not going away is this time I looked at it from all angles. It is on the inside of my butt ( thigh whatever you want to call it).
Also we have small children I am so afriad that myself or my husband could transfer it to them in some way like if one was to touch a wart there ( inside of our butt or thigh) not knowing its there and touch something else like a toys or something, can they get it? Also I want to have another child and I have read that gential warts can appear a lot while pregnant. (which none did while I was pregnant with either one of my kids). It scares me becasue that is the last thing I want to give to a child.
If it was to come out to be a gential wart and I have it clear, I want to be able to have a sex life with my husband with no worries that me or him will be getting warts again again and giving them to one another. I am afraid that we will just keep passing the warts back and forth.
Also I was just recently told about a week or so ago that I had HPV when I was 19 , now I am 28 years old. My oringial doctor never told me thats what it was and sent me to an OBGYN. Which he never came out and told my either, but he has kept an eye on it when I called a week or so ago to ask if that was what I had when I was sent to him, they told my yes, but my paps have been comin back good since that pass 6/7 years.
I just want to know my children are going to be ok and me and my husband can have a healthy life without having to worry with going back and forth, also if I was to get pregnant again that the baby would be ok.
Also I know they can tell about what kind of strain you have but when I first got it in 2003 they said they couldnt then but they can know, how can I go about it and should I?
Sorry another thing....... If I am in the shower can I transfer the virus or wart from my wash cloth or from/to the soap, and when I get out to dry can I transefer it by/to the towel? I want to clean myself with out worries of it getting on soemthing and then if I was to use it again it getting on my again or in another location or on someone else for that matter. Also al long as I keep washing my hands. I should be ok to touch other thing without it being transfer? sorry so long but I have a lot of questions and concerns!

Could this be a gential wart or something else, but if its soemthiing else in your opinion what  could it be?

Not gonna lie, i couldnt make out a lot of stuff you were saying but im just going to try and answer in the best manner.

If your husband had it such a long time ago and they never came back then chances are he is in the clear and doesnt need to worry about it ever again.

Your butt and thigh are two different things but i recommend you see a dermatologist and get it looked at. If any doubts you can get a skin biopsy for a conformational diagnosis.

I would recommend having my own towel anyways, just in case if a person does have HPV or not just keep your own towel and dont use the same part you use to dry you butt for your face.

Also, wash your hands. I mean practicing good personal hygiene is a benefit to you and those around you (your children).

I didnt quite understand, you had HPV recently....when you were 19 and now youre 28? recently? I dont understand. However you should understand that any abnormal changes in your pap are not always hpv related. I would have a follow up with the gyno.

Good luck and dont worry. You cant really spread the virus to your children unless they come in direct contact with your warts and had a good amount of friction againt them.
