Urologist 's  Response
hi,
First thing is you need not worry about your problem and there is nothing to be ashamed of. By your information I gather that extra thing you are referring to is called prepuce. In some individual the prepuce will not retract and can cause obstruction to urinary flow and this is called phimosis. You have not mentioned your age and I assume you are young and hence ruling out prostatic enlargement as a cause of urinary problem. Phimosis can be corrected by a simple surgery. Stop worrying and visit a urologist.
take care
