Hi Dariush,
Are you overweight? If you are, the fat pad that develops there on the lower abdomen pushes the skin down on the shaft of the penis, giving it the appearance you're describing. Fix: Lose the weight.
Also, be aware that the length of the penis when flaccid (soft) varies based on temperature, and also the angle you're looking at it. Typically, guys look down on their penis, so the perspective on it changes based on the angle of view. Lastly, flaccid length isn't really important, as long as you can get an erection of at least 4" you'll be able to perform and satisfy your partner.
As always, talk with your doc if you have concerns, but also be aware that by 17, it's likely that if there was real problem, the doc would have noticed and commented on it by now.
PM me with the link of the post you'd like me to respond to.
