What is the proper way to clean smegma. i am an uncircumcised male. ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Soap and water: I trust that your foreskin is easily retractable, if yes, wash your glans penis with soap and water, as you wash the rest of your body. If the foreskin is not fully retractable, you should consult a doctor to address the issue, phimosis.
