Brief Answer:
Wart

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
This is wart caused by HPV virus. However,warts taut occur on hands are in most cases other types of HPV which are not genital such as type 16 and 18. So these fingers warts usually are not transmissed in genital area including penis. Wish you good health. Regards
