hpv from licking, sucking, and kissing feet probability risk

hi everybody, well I want to understand if it is possible catching hpv in your mouth or on the tongue after licking and kissing feet (in case on these there is warts, verrucas or other manifestation of hpv)?
And if you have some bumps and papules on your tongue hpv related, is it possible to spread to your genitals by you hand?
If it is not realistic practically, teorically it is correct?

Thank you (I would prefer receive some medical advise or whoelse already had this experience)

Hi, the feet is not a common place to acquire hpv as prefers soft mucus areas to transmit and most often, hpv is associated with genital hpv. However there are many stains of hpv, some contagious and some not. The 2 most common area genital and those that appear on the female cervix.
I would not be concerned at all you contracted hpv from kissing a foot.
