I've been noticing that every 34 days or so, this white substance appears under my foreskin, just below the head of my penis. It smells pretty strong, and I have to clean it regularly. I usually just use water to wash it off. I'm a bit worriedcould this be some kind of infection? Is it something harmful to my penis? What should I do about it?

I've been feeling a burning sensation right after peeing for the past week, and the tip of my penis has been itching. I also have itching in my underarms, between my thighs, and around my scrotum could this be a fungal or bacterial infection spreading from one area to another? I've been using soap and powder to manage it, but the itching at the tip won't go away. Also, I have a tight foreskin (phimosis) and noticed a red, curved line from my shaft to the head when I pulled it back. I'm really nervous about surgery and talking to my parents what can I do to stop the itching and manage the tight foreskin? Are there stretching exercises that could help?

Urethritis Bacteria or viruses usually cause the condition. Urethritis causes burning during urination, and it can also be painful to ejaculate. The condition might also cause : itchiness and stinging in the urethra.
