It's different for everyone.

In The USA There seems to be an aversion to instructing children about penis maintenance. I think that none of them want to admit they have something so crude on their person. The fact is a male can usually get the foreskin of the penis to retract fully at a very early age. I cant remember not being able to retract the foreskin, and as a result my wife saw to it that my sons were able to do the same from early childhood. But one has to be careful not to force the issue because at birth the foreskin is still connected to the glans penis and forcing a separation is like separating a fingernail from the finger. however if the fore skin is neglected early in life it is still not a problem as a few simple non forceful stretching exercises will put it right within a couple of weeks. do it under warm water and use a little hand softening lotion, Or yo can get cortisone cremes that help soften the foreskin, just stretch it and gently press it backwards and forwards over the glans. Before you know it you will start to feel movement. Don't force it to much as you might hurt yourself you should have it under control within 2 weeks.

If you cant pull it back yet and you are not sexually active it is nothing to worry about, It does not get dirty under there as the body looks after the hygiene. however if you want to loosen it just go to the top of this page and ask " how do you stretch your foreskin" and you will find a lot of useful information.

You should never pull back the foreskin of an infant, because the tissues of the glans penis and the foreskin are not necessarily differentiated at birth. Around adolescence boys should be at least seeing how far back the foreskin will go if it does not already retract, but they should NEVER force the foreskin back. If the foreskin snaps back, exposing the glans penis, and the foreskin cannot be brought back up over the glans, then there is a medical emergency and medical help must be sought immediately. If the foreskin does not retract but there is no pain, no obstruction of erection and no loss of function, then even through puberty this is not necessarily a problem. Beyond puberty help should be sought, and circumcision should be considered one option of many to attempt to correct the condition (phimosis). There may be ways to naturally and effectively stretch the foreskin, thereby avoiding the trauma and permanent loss of functioning tissue.

How do men clean their penises?

Keeping penis clean is very important. 1.) Gently pull the foreskin back. 2.) Rinse with warm water only. Soap under the foreskin can cause irritation and swelling. 3.)

How do you treat a circumcised baby?

Never pull the infant's foreskin back. This can cause serious injury and tissue damage. Boys' foreskins will naturally retract on their own, which may be as late as the teenage years. The skin actually protects from dirt and bacteria. However, if the penis gets red or white stuff develops inside the foreskin, use a little bit of palmers coco butter.
