Is this Smegma!

[soosmna]

Im new here and i was trying to figure out if this was actually smegma.

Well im uncut. And for the first time this has happened. I woke up one moring and i had little pain. I thought it was because of how i slept on it. But around noon, when i went to take a pee i saw it. They looked like little chunky solids. Like real small bread crumbs if u can see that. Well i cleaned it out but the little pan was still there.

the pain hasnt increased or decreased. the chunky stuff came back, and i cleaned it out again. But now when it comes back it is in less amounts. But the pain is on the foreskin and its kinda red now, it seems kinda irritated or something, guessing from trying to clean it, and the bottom of the head.

I clean in the shower everyday since i started. Was it maybe i forgot the wash that one day before it started?

i woke up this morning with the little pain there. but no chunky stuff. Is it becuase all of it hasnt been cleaned out yet? And if it is smegma, how long does it take to go away.

Hmmmm.....Smegma is a collection of stuff under there that does look white, can be grainy. But, the most distinctive feature is it's pungent smell (some say 'cheesy'). It doesn't hurt. There's no pain involved.

My bet is that you might have some minor infection, maybe a yeast or fungal, and that the white stuff isn't smegma but a by product of one of these.

This is not a big deal, the warm, moist, dark environment under the foreskin is fertile breeding ground for that stuff, esp. during the warmer summer months. But, it does require treatment, so tell your folks and get some stuff for it to make it go away. If it is a fungal or yeast infection, it will NOT go away on it's own, and it will become more uncomfortable and insistent.

well it does smell cheesy and stuff. but its not like pressure pain, it seems like an irritation pain.

im just trying to avoid the fact that it is something bad.

And normally i would tell my parents. but if my mom finds out she wont get over it for years. she will always think there is something wring down there. But its just because she is protective of me.

ty for responding

If you're cleaning a few times a day, and you're cleaning thoroughly, then it really can't be smegma. It doesn't collect THAT fast.

Also, the 'irritation' you describe can't happen based on the way you slept on it.

Also, just to confuse you a liitle more, a yeast infection smells cheesy, too, and it looks white and grainy.

If you're cleaning a lot during the day, I think you might need to come up with a plan to get to a doc. Maybe your dad?

well the pain has decreased since last night.

Ill spend one more night on it. If it doesn pass ill talk to my dad then. hopefully he wont tell my mom.

thank you for the help.

its probably a yeast infection, there a no biggie, i had one a few months ago and it was white and smelly and my "area" hurt for a good while.

[soosmna]

how u get rid of it?

[soosmna]

Well to add on to what i started with...

I looked up some things it could possibly be on the internet. The only thing that it really relates to with the yeast infection is the red foreskin. It showed pictures of what it would look like if i had it, and it looks nothing like it.

It also says it would hurt if i j/o. But when i did yesterday, it did hurt. It was like any other time.

But since this morning, the pain i had is almost down to zero now. I still cant figure what it is though.

hm..maybe you should tell your parents that something isnt right down there and you need to see a doctor, talk to your dad if your not comfortable with your mom. oh, and if your not comfortable with ur parents at all go to an adult that u really trust and are able to talk to.

[soosmna]

well now that stuff isnt coming out at all. It just a little itchy sometimes ant the top of my foreskin.

Its really strange. U guyz think the itch will go away now since the stuff went away too?

Listen, what you're describing doesn't sound typical. Your penis typically shouldn't itch, it shouldn't be red, you shouldn't need to clean more than once daily. There might be a problem there, I think you should find a way to tell your dad and get it attended to. This has been going on for a few days now.

Let's talk instead about the way you can most comfortably talk with your dad about it, I know it's embarassing and you said your mom is a really nosey and all, but sometimes things need attention and you have to go thru them to get it.
