Hi Mark,
I wouldn't suggest you pull it down quickly. In some cases it can get stuck and cause "paraphimosis" which is a medical emergency. Basically, your foreskin gets stuck, the penis starts to swell, and eventually it causes problems with the circulation of blood into the penis. It can lead to amputation if not treated quickly.
That's all worst case.
Have you EVER tried to retract your foreskin? Will it go back when you are not erect?
Start stretching. Get an erection and pull down on the shaft skin so that the glans spreads the opening. Do it in the shower, the warm water will help soften the skin. Do it as often as you can. Don't force it. Just go back as far as you can comfortably, trying a little more each day.
You will find your glans very sensitive at first. This is NORMAL too. You will get used to it in time.
Hope it helps.
If you want to leave it retracted that's fine.
