What Causes White Stuff Underneath Foreskin?

while changing my 2 and a half year old little boys diaper last night, I saw this white stuff underneath his foreskin (not schmegma), that I know what it is and I always remove it. this was more like under the skin and with a little pressure came out. It had the consistency of like a thick cream. NO smell or anything and he told me it did not hurt him. What could this be. His doctor is not in today or I would have taken him.

Hi,
From history it seems that due to poor cleaning of local part there might be deposition of white stuff like smegma producing this problem.
Clean local part by averting foreskin and clean it properly.
If require apply some antibiotic cream for few days as there might be having some irritation and soreness.
Ok and take care.
