Have had some gray build-up in between my foreskin for several months. not uncomfortable & no pain. have never had sex. initially thought it was smegma. cannot get it out, as it is in a very sensitive area. clean area well everyday, yet still there.

Exam: I suggest a urology exam. Any unexplained buildup by the foreskin which cannot be cleaned out should be clinically evaluated.
