Is The Closed Foreskin In A Baby A Reason For Concern?

I was changing my 7 month old son s diaper and when I looked at his urethral opening, I noticed it looks like the skin is closed. Is that possible? I know I m not supposed to pulll his foreskin back but I don t see his penis head because the foreskin looks like it s closed. Normal? Am I too worried?

Hello. I just read through your question.
As long as he has an unobstructed urine stream, there is nothing to worry about and nothing to do.
