When the penis is flaccid, the normal position for the foreskin is to be covering the glans. It may be that you have a short foreskin, and providing it doesn't cause you any pain or irritation, I wouldn't worry about it. Contact a doctor if you're concerned.

What does uncircumcision look like?
Uncircumcised penises have skin that covers the head (glans) of the penis when it is soft. This skin, called the foreskin, can slide back off the head. The foreskin usually slides back when a man's penis becomes erect. If the head of the penis always shows, even when the man is soft and not erect, then he is circumcised. If the penis head is covered when he is soft, then he is uncircumcised.
You have been reading up on stretching your foreskinand want to know whether it should be done while penis is erect or soft your foreskin is easily pulled back when soft?
There are a lot of scams selling products for "stretching" the foreskin. There is no scientific evidence that stretching is possible. If it were, problems like phymosis (or phimosis) (narrowing of the foreskin that prevents full retraction) would never happen.
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.
Is foreskin supposed to be back on hard?
I would say that depends on how much foreskin you have. I think for health and cleanliness it s good idea to keep it pulled back whenever you can. especially when its hard. ive read that men with heavy foreskin that dont stretch it back can eventually have a problem fully exposing the head of the penis resulting in less sensation our even painful masturbation and problems with difficult penetration. anything anyone can add.. other than thanks mom and dad. . .
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.

Can a boy's foreskin grow back after circumcision?
Never.
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.
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
How do you know if a boy if circumcised?
If his penis head shows all the time, even when he's soft, then he is probably circumcised. The presence of a circumcision scar is the surest tell tale sign of circumcision. If his penis head is covered by skin when he is soft, then he is uncircumcised. The skin can be pulled back, and it frequently slides back off the head as a man starts to get an erection.
