Hello
Thanks for your query.Based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you are getting white streaky layer being deposited around coronal sulcus of your penis.

This is termed as Smegma which is a thick secretion of mucus being secreted by glands in glans of the penis.

This is natural secretion of these glands which is excessive in your case. There is no reason why it is more in your case.

There is no medicine to reduce this secretion .

Please observe proper persona hygiene by cleaning your genitals with warm water twice daily.
