Dear Patient, Balanitis is an infection or inflammation of the skin on the head (glans) of the penis. In men who are not circumcised, this area is covered by a flap of skin known as the foreskin, or prepuce. Balanitis can occur in both circumcised and uncircumcised men, although it occurs more commonly in men who are not circumcised. Young boys generally are affected only if they have a very tight foreskin that is difficult to pull back (Phimosis). Note: At Sidri International Skin Hair & Sexology Clinic , Phimosis / Tight Foreskin Treatment can be done without CIRCUMCISION (Circumcision is Removal of the foreskin from the human penis). You don't have to get your Precious Foreskin Removed. We treat Phimosis without Surgery/ Without Circumcision. Also, A variety of infections and skin conditions can cause balanitis. These include: Infections with yeast (Candida) or bacteria that live on the skin (the most common cause) Sexually transmitted infections, such as herpes simplex Irritation of the skin by soap, detergents or spermicidal jelly Benign (noncancerous) skin conditions such as psoriasis Some types of skin cancer (very rare) While any man can develop balanitis, the condition is most likely to occur in men who have a tight foreskin that is difficult to pull back, or who have poor hygiene. Diabetes can make balanitis more likely, especially if the blood sugar is poorly controlled. High blood sugar causes elevated amounts of sugar in the urine. Sugar-rich urine that dribbles on to the glans and under the foreskin provides a friendly environment for yeast and bacteria. Also, people with poorly controlled diabetes have a harder time fighting infections. When balanitis keeps recurring, it may be caused by a yeast infection transmitted back and forth between partners during sexual contact. Symptoms of Balanitis: A red, inflamed rash on the head and shaft of the penis or under the foreskin Itching or burning in the affected area A white, clumpy or yellowish discharge from the affected skin or from under the foreskin

Application of weak topical corticosteroid creams to the tip of the penis proves to be effective in several cases. Surgery is performed in cases where conservative treatment fails. Circumcision (surgical removal of foreskin) is the only permanent cure. Consult Urologist...

Due to sedentary lifestyle and unhealthy eating habits sexual problems are on rise. Please reduce your weight up to 65 kg in 6 months. In your case the white substance could be smegma which has to be cleaned daily during bath. If there is no offensive smell then forget, otherwise you need to get some blood investigations. If married both you and your partner might need treatment and avoid sex till the discharge is present.
