What to do if i have smegma and can't get rid of it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Here are some ...: If the foreskin is easy to retract, cleansing smegma should be an easy chore, but if tight and difficult to retract, doing that could be hard so circumcision would be advised for long-term topical care.

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.
