Hello,

No need to worry from now on you can take care of genital hygiene. Your issue - it can be candida infection or infected smegma. Daily washing with saline water can help you. If you can share a picture for better understanding - i can help you better.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
