thanks for your query in HCM,
the string of skin connecting the head of penis to skin is called frenulum. it is normally present in all individuals, so don't worry. and with regarding your difficulty in retracting foreskin needs to be checked by nearby doctor and decide whether foreskin needs to be removed or not.
