Brief Answer:
Traumatic injury.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome To HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney. I understand your concern.
It seems to be as per details that you have developed traumatic injury of Penis that may occur following vigrous sexual activity. In fact rupture of small blood vessels can lead to hematoma and swelling.
My recommendations would be to take Anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac for symptomatic relief.
I would recommend you to wait and watch till you get your doctors appointment for examination. This is mostly self resolving condition.
If you have severe pain or difficult / painful erection than you should go to ER for evaluation.
I hope it helps you.
If you have any further query, please ask me.
