Sounds like Smegma. Does it smell bad
too?
You're doing the right thing by washing it
in warm water. It's best not to use soapy
products or deodorant on it. Just keep on
with the warm water, it could be you've
had it so long that it's stuck quite hard
onto the skin which might be why it hurts
when you move the foreskin. I remember the
first time I found it was quite difficult
to wash off.
You shouldn't be too worried, I'm pretty
sure everyone comes across it at some
stage. Just keep washing thoroughly and it
should eventually come off and keep it
clean.
If you still have difficulty washing it
off you might be better seeing your
Doctor. It really sounds like Smegma
though.
