History and Symptoms

The foreskin is pulled back (retracted) behind the rounded tip of the penis (glans) and stays there. The retracted foreskin and glans become swollen. This makes it difficult to return the foreskin to its extended position.

Symptoms include:

• Inability to pull the retracted foreskin over the head of the penis
• Painful swelling at the end of the penis
• Pain in the penis
