Hi,
White discharge or smegma is collection of skin debris epithelial cells in tip of penis due to phimosis (as penile skin is non retractile in kids). Don't worry while bathing make the skin retracted and clean with fresh water it will clear. If child is in severe pain with painful urination requires urine test for UTI and local T bact ointment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Prasanna Lakshmi, Pediatrician
