Sebaceous glands are a form of sweat glands, so the doctor is correct.
As for the ones on the rim of the head, they're pearly penile papules, as mentioned. Here is a link. They're completely normal. Overall, I wouldn't worry about your boyfriend's penis; it sounds natural:

The ones at the base of the penis are sebaceous (oil) glands and hair follicles (that would have a sweat gland with them). The ones on the rim of the glans are pearly penile papules, a harmless growth attached to nerves that actually increase sensation.
Both sorts are totally harmless, non-contagious and normal.
Hmmm. Dont get me wrong I dont want to make your bf out to be a liar but I would be a little concerned. I would reccomend going to the gnyo or your doctor and get a pap and pelvic just in case. It sounds a lot like HPV (which isnt that big of a deal) to me genital bumps, lumps, and warts look different on everybody so just make sure your bf was correct about that
yeah it's normal
