well past the bottom of the glans exposing all of the mucousal tissue that lines the inside of the foreskin and the glans in their entirety.. if it does not do this then some simple stretching exercises can help pin achieving this, It is helpful that it can retract fully open so that you get the right movement during sex and masturbation and it makes cleaning and inspection easier.
Just below the underside of the glans you will notice the frenulum and this holds the foreskin back the fore skin should be able to stretch this back a little way to expose the whole of its mucosal inside. it also serves to pull the foreskin back over the glans. in any case all the tissues concerned can be gently stretched over time to work smoothly and retract in its entirety.

∙ 12y agoThis depends on how old you are. In infants and young children it is normal for the foreskin not to go back at all. Gradually the foreskin will loosen so that the boy will be able to pull back his foreskin. By puberty about 90% of boys can pull the foreskin back enough to reveal the entire glans (head). In the remaining 10% of teenagers and adult men, the foreskin may not go back at all or it may go back far enough to reveal only part of the glans. This is only a problem if it makes it hard to keep the head of the penis clean or if it causes discomfort during an erection or during sex.
If by the time the penis is used for sex it does not retract properly the foreskin can normally be stretched with foreskin stretching exercises and be fully functional within a couple of weeks.

∙ 11y agoThe foreskin is a double layer of skin that is originally connected below the glans penis. When it is in a position forward from that, it is doubled up over itself. When it is pulled right back it will look like you have no foreskin at all with first a band of mucous membrane heading a little way down the shaft disappearing at a point known as the frenar band (this is the tip of the intact penis) where the skin looks like the rest of the outside of the penis. The fraenulum on the underside of the penis will also have the effect of holding the foreskin and wanting to pull it back into place.

∙ 12y agoYou should only retract your foreskin for as long as it takes to have sex, masturbate, or clean underneath it. If a foreskin remains retracted too long, it can restrict the blood flow to the glans (tip) of the penis and cause permanent damage.
IMPROVED ANSWERThe previous answer is based on the chance that the foreskin in question is too tight to retract comfortably. If a male has regularly retracted his foreskin from childhood forward, to clean in bathing/showers, the foreskin will not be so tight that it could restrict blood flow in a non-erect penis.If your foreskin can be retracted comfortably and remain pulled below the head of your penis without discomfort there is no time limit on how long it can remain pulled back. However, if you plan to pull back your foreskin for long periods of time, it should be noted that your pants, underwear or any fabrics that come in contact with your penis may feel extremely rough and uncomfortable.
The nerve endings in the glans (head of penis) are extremely sensitive as the foreskin was meant to protect them. You may find it extremely uncomfortable to expose the head of your penis and allow it continual contact with most any fabrics or textures that are not soft or lubricated.

Do you have to circumsize?
No, only if there are medical reasons to why the foreskin can't be pulled back.
When is medical care required for phimosis?
If the foreskin cannot be pulled back into place treatment should be sought. If the blood flow to the penis is restricted then emergency treatment is required and if the foreskin cannot be pulled back a surgical cut to the trapped foreskin may be needed
Men with a tight foreskin that can not be pulled back to uncover the head of the penis?
see your doctor
What do doctors check for when you go to a check up to see if you need a circumcision or not?

What is male docking?
Male docking is an act performed between two men. One fo the two men must be uncircumcised and the longer the foreskin when erect, the easier it is. Both men obtain full erection and the foreskin is pulled back slightly. The tip of each penis is placed against each other. The foreskin is pulled back down covering as much of both penises as is possible. Usually masturbation follows while maintaining foreskin coverage of both men. Ejaculation may or may not be a part of the docking masturbation.
How is infant male circumcision performed?
In circumcision of infants, the foreskin is pulled tightly into a specially designed clamp, and the foreskin pulls away from the broadened tip of the penis. Pressure from the clamp stops bleeding from blood vessels that supplied the foreskin
What could happen if a boy's penile foreskin is forced back too early?
The foreskin of an uncircumsized newborn should NEVER be pulled back; it is a myth and it is dangerous to do this. It should never be forced back by a parent, no matter what the reason the parent has. Keep your hands off of it. Tissues of the glans penis and of the covering foreskin are not yet differentiated, and the foreskin should be left alone. Some physicians consider that an unretracted foreskin can be normal and non-problematic even as late as puberty. Yes, there can be problems with the foreskin, but pathological phimosis (a medically problematic unretractable foreskin) is virtually NEVER a competent diagnosis at birth.AnswerThe foreskin does not retract at birth. Forcing it back at this age can cause tearing and scarring meaning it will be difficult to retract in the future.
To have puberty do you have to have the foreskin pulled out?
It's unclear what you mean by foreskin pulled out. If you mean do you have to be circumcised in order to go through puberty, the answer is a resounding no. If you mean that you cannot pull your foreskin back to reveal the head of your penis, then you should consult a doctor. There are a few options that may help this; don't just jump to surgery as the solution. This condition won't prevent you from experiencing puberty, but at some point it is a condition you will want to address.
Is phimosis an STD?
Phimosis is not a disease, STD or otherwise, it is a condition where the foreskin is constricted over the foreskin. Normally the foreskin in an uncircumcised is able to be pulled back to completely uncover the glans. If this proves to be impossible then one can end up with infections as it is not possible for the area under it to be cleaned and dry. The treatment for this is to cut the foreskin and release it. A foreskin can not be left in this condition because there wil be a constant risk of infection and it Will also ruin the pleasure in sex.
Where would one find the frenulum?
If it is doing what it is supposed to do. which is cause the foreskin to move back over the glans of the penis when it is flaccid. it is easily distinguishable when puling the foreskin right back as a separate chord like entity that reaches from the glans to the foreskin for about 15mm until it seems to blend back into the foreskin. so it is not actually tight at all it only becomes tight when the foreskin is pulled back. the tightens of the frenulum may well be associated with the tightness of the foreskin round the penis itself. loosen the foreskin and you loosen the frenulum.
How foreskin is removed during intercourse?
The foreskin is not removed during intercourse. The foreskin is a double layer of very sensitive skin that covers and thus protects the glans penis. In the area where it is against the glans penis it is covered with a fine layer of mucous membrane. The foreskin is designed to be able to be pulled back wards exposing the glans penis entirely and then come back to cover it again on its own accord with the aid of the frenulum the ridged band inside the end of it puckers it in such a way as to hold it in place over the head. When you have sex the foreskin is pushed back as a result of the friction of pushing it into the vagina and as the penis moves back and forth so does the foreskin making the movement more pleasurable and less forceful for both male and female.
What is a long foreskin?
By examination of the word 'long' one would assume the question is referring to a foreskin greater than average. Average foreskin covers the glans of the penis completely when soft. When erect average foreskin typically slides back and exposes some if not all of the glans. If a man has 'long' foreskin, by description alone it suggests that the foreskin is of a greater/longer amount than average. Some men with longer foreskins can have an erection with no exposure of the glans. In other cases the foreskin can be long enough to cover the glans during erection with excess at the tip. Typically the position of the foreskin is dependant upon the elasticity and size of the frenum, which attatches the foreskin to the underside of the glans. The more flexible and abundant the frenum is, the more likely the foreskin is able to slide up and down.
