Brief Answer:
It is not HPV.

Detailed Answer:
Hi
I saw the pic.
It is not HPV.
It could be a simple sebaceous cyst or infection of small hair follicle in that area.
Actually, it is not on foreskin.It is over shaft .
I would prescribe Antibiotic like Clindamycin along with anti inflammatory tablet to my patients with similar complaints. Please consult your treating doctor for the same.
Hope I answered your query.
If you have any questions, I will clarify further.
Wish you good health.
