Have White Streak Like Lines Under The Head Of The Penis

Hi, I'm 24 year old male, my penis is circumcised, and recently I've noticed white streak like lines under the head of the penis. It's not being removed even after cleaning. These look like the normal veins but they are white, no irritation though. What would you advice?

Hi, Commonest cause of white spot in the area indicated is a fungal infection. I would suggest you keep the part dry as moisture aids fungal growth. You can also use an over the counter anti fungal cream like Candid --twice a day for a week. If it does not reduce, please consult your doctor. Regards.
