These papules can be very difficult to diagnose from a picture so you really need to see a doctor in person so that your rash can be examined. Once examined, a diagnosis can be made and then the appropriate treatment rendered. So, see your doctor for an in-person evaluation. Good luck!

HPV lesions do not look like penile papules but like stunted mushrooms and are generally flesh colored.Best is to get checked by a Urologist. Pictures are not a part of this forum
