Risks of oral HPV

Hello guys, I'm 18 years old and a few months ago I performed unprotected oral sex on my girlfriend, some weeks later she discovered and told me she has genital HPV.
She said that by the time we had sex there was a non-cauliflower wart next to her genitals (even even though I didnt see it) but back then she didn't know anything about the risks and symptoms of HPV.

1. We used a condom during the penetration, so the chances of penis HPV are low?
2. Am I going to have oral cancer or warts in my mouth?
3. She was my first and only sexual partner, what are the chances of oral HPV and throat/mouth warts?
4. Does the desease/symptoms of genital HPV and oral HPV last forever?
5. Is the HPV virus only transmitted when the person has visible warts?
6. Are there any types of non-cancerous HPV viruses that can be transmitted orally? and whats the percentage of it compared to the cancerous viruses?

I'm very healthy (I don't drink, smoke or do any kind of drugs) and my immune system works really good.

Sorry for my bad english ;)

So if there was a wart next to her genitals then it means it is a non cancerous HPV?

If you rubbed your genitals together during foreplay, then the condom has much less meaning.  Even with a condom, the base of your penis not protected can grind in and get infected there.  The chances of oral are fairly low from what I can understand.  I'd take a good look now at your mouth so that you can detect changes going forward.  I wouldn't worry too much about this. Just keep an eye on it.  The disease and sypmtoms don't last forever.  if you get warts on your penis, know you'll be dealing with outbreaks every one to three months for about a year, up to two years in rarer instances, and most likely not for more than two years. The virus can be transmitted without visible warts being present although the liklihood is drastically lessened.  It happens though.  Non cancerous HPV are the wart kind, so if you have warts in the mouth it won't lead to cancer.  IT's the other kind, the high-risk type that can lead to cancer over decades after exposure.  I don't know any percentages.  You'll be fine, just check your penis really good once a week or ten days or so.  Don't over analyze ten times a day if you can control the urge.  Goodl luck
