First of all, phimosis is perfectly normal at 16! Most boys can fully retract the foreskin by 16, but a significant number cannot retract until 18 ot 19. You can either do nothing or do the stretching exercises another answerer suggested, but you do NOT need circumcision!
You can ask your doctor for some steroid cream to hurry the process if you wish.

Talk with your doctor and examine your choices. The important thing is that you have appropriate treatment for the phimosis as soon as possible. The longer you let it go the worse it will get.

I too had a phimosis,but it wouldn't eat so I sold it to a pet shop and got a cat instead.You should try to do that too.

you can stretch your foreskin with your fingers or by using a glansie it will take ten minutes a day and about a month to do.

its not your parents business and you should do what you want why would you even talk about it with your parents?
