Hello- It isn?t unusual for your penis to have an odor. But if you feel like the scent has changed or grown stronger, it may be a sign of an underlying condition. It seems that the smell is due to SMEGMA. Smegma refers to a buildup of moisture, oils, and skin cells around the shaft of the penis. It?s much more common under the foreskin if you?re uncircumcised. The area under your foreskin normally needs lubrication from this mixture. When too much smegma builds up ? because you sweat a lot or don?t wash your penis regularly ? it can create smelly white chunks that can cause bacteria to grow. If left untreated, your penis can become inflamed or infected. Just retract your foreskin and wash it daily during bath, make it dry and apply some talcum powder over it. It will be fine on continuous use.
