Q: i was wondering about hpv i have had no sextual contact where i couldve contracted the virus but i have some possible problem spots on my shaft. i also have ppp could this be something like that?

No: PPP is common &amp; considered relatively normal. It is unrelated to genital warts. The vague description of spots does not give enough data to suggest a cause. Discuss this with your doc the next time you go in for a checkup.
