Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I have gone through your query and noted your concern.

Any visible wart should be removed as it is a common source of further spread- to elsewhere as well as local spread as well as carrying the risk of transmission to sexual partners. So, you should get it removed and, if and when, any new ones that may appear.
