Thanks for asking in healthcaremagic forum
White substance that accumilates under the foreskin is called smegma and is natural substance secreted by glands present over that area. So, it should be cleaned daily during bathing by retracting the foreskin t avoid infection.
Hope this will help you, if not please visit a doctor to rule out possible fungal infection. All the best.
