It sounds, to me, that you have gotten a yeast infection on your penis. It is not unheard of for men to get these sorts of infections on their penis and still be a virgin, but it does usually come with not cleaning well or enough and/or having an uncircumcised penis. Some other causes for a yeast infection on the penis are: sexual transmission, condom usage, antibiotics, and diabetes.
You definately do not need to worry that this yeast infection is going to harm your body, it mostly just makes things look a little icky and sometimes smell strange (not always). It may also cause a slight burning sensation when you urinate, but, again, all of the "symptoms" don't always show up.
You really need to go to your doctor and let them swab the area to test the white growth on your penis. It is not normal to have white stuff growing on your penis--ever. Even if it's just a simple yeast infection you will need to have the doctor supply you with some medication for self treatment. Doctors see this sort of thing regularly so there isn't anything to be embarrassed of--you're just human.
If you do not see a doctor, expect it to remain and possibly worsen over time. It is not going to magically go away without the medication. You will pass it along to other partners you have (yes, you can pass it to the throat as well if you engage in oral sex). It's best to be treated now.
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask me! :)
