What Wikipedia says

Phimosis (from Greek φίμωσις phimōsis 'muzzling') is a penile condition characterized by restricted foreskin retractability, such that the foreskin cannot be stretched sufficiently to permit retraction beyond the glans during an erection. A balloon-like swelling under the foreskin may occur with urination.
