My age is 22. I had sex. After that my penis is getting smelled. I'm cleaning daily but under the skin daily I'm getting that smell and white color wax. I don't why it's coming but daily same smell and that wax is producing some times it's getting irritating also. At the end of my penis skin like wound it's paining. I'm worrying about this. This is any infection or normal decies? This will shows any problems on my sexual life? Pls give the suggestion how to come normal. And tell me why it's coming like that?

Dear Lybrate user. I can understand. Please do not panic or worry. The whitish substance is called smegma. Smegma is a combination of shed skin cells, skin oils, urine, sperm cells and moisture. It occurs in both male and female genital organs. In females, it collects around the clitoris and in males, smegma can collect under the foreskin. There is no evidence that smegma causes penile cancer, but its presence over a long period of time may irritate and inflame the penis, which may increase the risk of cancer. It may also make it harder to see very early cancers. Clean the area beneath your foreskin daily twice after pulling your foreskin back. Take care.
