The tip of my penis has been swollen since this morning, and I masturbate pretty regularly. I came across some information that said it might be from excessive or forceful masturbation. The swollen part is really sensitive and it hurts whenever it touches anything. It's painful even during simple activities like walking or doing chores. Should I be concerned about this, or is it something that will just heal on its own?

I've noticed some small, painless bumps on the foreskin of my penis. They've been there for over two months. I don't feel any itching, and they showed up around the time I last had sex. I was already tested, and the V.D.R.L. test came back negative. Should I be doing another test, or is there something else I can do? I'm really concerned about whether I might have an STD. I'm also considering sharing some pictures for reference. What do you think?
