Thanks Doc

1) I am not married yet
2) It has always been there for some time now - i think for over 2 years now
3) I thoroughly clean my glands every time i take a bath
4) I can retract it fully but because i am not circumcised, the lower part still has that part stuck to the head.

Brief Answer:
Consult qualified Surgeon or Urologist.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for feedback.
It may be due to accumulation of smegma (mucus secreted by glands in glans penis) which may be secondary to incomplete retraction of foreskin over glans penis .

Please consult qualified General Surgeon or Urologist for clinical examination .
You may need to get circumcised

Thanks and Regards.
