hi my name is beth, i have recently noticed my boyfriend has had white discharge around the head of his penis, and had a foul odor. i was just wondering if it could be a yeast infection, eventhough he does not have any blisters,sores, or rashes. he is circumsised
Yeast infection doesn't cause any blisters, sores or rashes. It could be yeast but it could also be accumulation of smegma, oily substance produced by the skin that serves as a lubricator and dead skin cells. When good hygiene lacks, smegma could persist on the penis, get thick and smell bad. This is most common in non-circumsized men.
