I don't own one but most tangs use it for defense.
Is he being bothered by anything in the tank? Maybe thats why he had it extended.

If it's acting normal and seems healthy other than the barb sticking out I would leave it alone.
You'd likely do more harm than good handling him anyway. You could post it on the disease forum if your to worried about it.
