This white deposit is nothing but smegma, which is usually produced in the prepuce and it coats the penis head protecting it. It must be cleaned away at bath, or at passing urine. Pull back the entire skin of the penis and expose the penis head, and clean this white deposit using plain water. If you can not pull back the whole foreskin, then you must consult a surgeon who will advice a circumcision to make the skin retractable.
