Hello,
Possible causes are like prominent penile vein or penile fracture or wart or erythema.
Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Use cold compression and take rest.
If symptoms not improved please consult with your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
