Brief Answer:
Severe allergic reaction

Detailed Answer:
Hi

From the description you have provided,it looks like you have developed angioedema causing swelling of the penile region .
It is basically a severe allergic reaction .
You should avoid taking any antibiotics or pain killers since they may increase the swelling .
Start with some antihistamines like Benadryl or levocetrizine to control the allergy .
See a nearby dermatologist or general physician soon for direct examination and assessment.

Hope it helps
