Question

I'm a bit concerned about my penis. It's been slightly curved since I was young, and when it's not erect, it seems really small. When it is erect, it's about 4.5 inches. Plus, my foreskin doesn't really pull back much when I'm hard, and I'm not sure if that's normal. Can you give me some advice on whether this is something to worry about?

It's completely normal for some men to have a slight curvature in their penis, and it can vary in size when flaccid or erect. The difficulty pulling back your foreskin when erect could indicate a condition called phimosis, which is treatable. I recommend consulting a urologist for a proper evaluation and advice on potential treatment options.
