Brief Answer:
it is foreskin. if no phimosis , it does not create any problem.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us. I can understand your concern.

Extra skin on penis is called foreskin. It is normally retractable behind the rim of glans (anterior top most round part of penis) penis. If it is not retractable or painful retraction it is corrected manually or surgically (minor operation is called circumcision).
Please let me know if you have such problem.

I also want to clarify about normal length of penis.

Normal size of penis in flaccid state is 2 to 4 inches (5 to 10 cm) while in erect position 4 to 6 inches (10 to 15 cm). It varies according to body structure and race. Size of penis does not matter much for satisfying partner.
Anterior 3 inches of female vaginal wall is sensitive to sexual stimuli. Only 3.5 inches of erect penis is sufficient to satisfy female.

Hope I have answered your query, I will be happy to help further.
Regards,
Dr.Chintan Solanki.
