What Causes Smell Inside Penis?
I have a bad smell inside my penis. I got recently married in the month of october. I used to urinate more than 10 times a day, coz of drinking lots of water. I have been noticing this smell from last one month. What could be the reason for this. Please advise.

Hello,
It can be a smegma which is nothin but an infective material collected over the head of penis. It has to be cleaned regularly otherwise it will get infected and lead to foul smelling discharge.
As of now clean the affected area with soap and water and apply topical antibiotics like mupirocin. If symptoms persist better to consult a dermatologist and get evaluated. If symptoms persist circumcision may be required.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
