Hello, based on your description, you should not have balanitis. The white, foul-smelling substance should be like white curd-like material.Advice: This white curd-like material is called smegma. You likely have phimosis, which leads to the formation of smegma. Clean it off promptly. It's best to wash the external genital area every night. Pay attention to personal hygiene, and don't worry—it's not balanitis. Rest assured. I hope my explanation helps you. For those with balanitis, timely treatment can reduce recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should seek appropriate treatment promptly and pay more attention to self-care in daily life.
