This is normal when you first start pulling it back.
Mine was the same, and this is because we probably didn't slide it back when we were kids.
Anyways, just slide it back when you shower the most you can (without forcing it) and wash what you can.
Eventually it'll slide more and more. This should only take a few seconds when you shower; no biggie.
So yeah, if you never slide it back it'll never slide back. You have to start doing it when you shower! =)
PS. It may be a bit sensitive (the head) at first, but it'll get better the more you touch it. That happens because as new studies have confirmed, circumcision reduces sensitivity/pleasure, so that means the foreskin keeps the head really sensitive (especially when you haven't touched it much before!). It'll all be fine. =)
You don't have an infection; it just means you haven't slided it back before.

Yes, you do need to pull your foreskin back so you can clean underneath it. At your age, you actually could just wait a year and see if it loosens up (and it probably will); but, you can also try get it to go back now if you want.
You should never force it back to the point where it's uncomfortable or hurts. If you can't pull your foreskin back without discomfort or pain, then you might have a condition called "phimosis," where the foreskin opening is a little too tight/narrow to allow it to be retracted back.
There are several ways you can deal with this. The first thing you can try if you don't want to wait, is do "stretching exercises." In one stretching exercise, take two fingers and hook a finger on either side of the foreskin opening and pull in opposite directions (like increasing its radius) as far as it'll go without pain or discomfort. Stretch and hold it stretched like this for a few seconds, then let it relax for a few seconds, then repeat this process for a few minutes each day for a few weeks to a month. It's best to do this after a shower/bath when the skin's a little more flexible.
If after a month and this doesn't work, and you still want this taken care of now, see a doctor about prescription creams. According to one study, these creams are the most cost-effective treatment a doctor can give you (see link 1).
For you, you probably won't need to (nor want to) go beyond this stage since you're young and may still have a few years for it to be able to retract. But, if the creams don't work as well, you could consider surgical options. Note that there are other options other than circumcision that are cheaper, less painful, remove less foreskin, and have a quicker recovery time (see link 2).
See the remaining links for more info on phimosis and how to deal with it, but it should've be a major problem in your case and should resolve easily and fairly quickly.

Keep working on it when you are in the shower. Pull it back as far as is comfortable, then just a little more. Over time it will loosen up so you can pull it back all the way.
You can get a cream from the doctor to help loosen it up, or you can do exercises. Just put a small finger either side of the foreskin inside the opening, and pull outtward until it is uncomfortable, but not painful. Hold for 20 seconds. Relax then repeat. Do this 10 times. Try and repeat the whole exercise two or three times a day. In a month or so you will find it gets much easier to pull the foreskin back.

does it look like there is more room to pull it back? It should come back easily and if not then it either is all the way back when you pull it back or you may need to see a doctor. I know it would be really embarassing but ask your dad about it. try being in the shower or tub and just get it really soapy and masturbate and I guarantee it will be clean enough. Let me know how it works out.

Get an erection and try to pull it back. If it starts to hurt then stop. Try applying some lube or lotion to loosen it up before pulling it back. If it just absolutely won't go back, then keep trying and stretching and see if you make slow progress. If nothing happens after a while go and see a doctor.

you should be pulling it back. mine was stubborn when i first did it; what helped was taking a bath, and pulling it back then. try pulling, or rolling it back gently, just a little at a time. you might have to use a little more force than you think you might. the important thing is that you can get it rolled back to clean it; all sorts of problems can happen if you don't. good luck.

See the link to my stretching instructions below. They should answer most of your questions. Normally this takes some time and patience, so don't force it.
