It sounds to me like you have a condition
called Phimosis. It's easy to fix, but you
have to see a doctor. If you've never had
your penis looked at by a doctor, it can
be a bit nerve-racking, but I assure you,
doctor's are trained to deal with this
type of stuff. There are many solutions,
including stretching the foreskin so it
can more easily retract (which may take
some advice from a doctor, or some steroid
creams to stimulate cell growth) or a
simple procedure to loosen the foreskin.
Circumcision is always an option, but I
would recommend it as a last resort... it
can be painful and requires a long healing
time as well as high risk for infection if
you're not careful.
Anyways, see a doctor about it. Get it
taken care of sooner than later!

I had the same problem as a young fella, I
have been told it was as source of pain
for me I do not remember as I was so
young.
The doctors told my parents to pull the
foreskin back as far as they could and
hold it there for a count of 30, 3 or 4
times a day, this helped alot from what I
have been told.
When I was about 15 I still had problems
getting it back all the way, so I
restarted what the doctors had told my
parents to do, a year later it was fine
and has been ever since, Im now 26.
I don't know if this will work on you but
its worth a try.
Another thing I use to do was get the
foreskin back as far as I could and give
myself an errection, this further helped
to stretch the skin, sometimes I used lube
to get it back all the way, it did hurt
sometimes so I would be careful about
doing this.
