Penis swelling or inflammation is a sign of infection, injury, irritation or other condition.

The infection can be caused by a  STD, trush, circumcision or poor hygiene.

Injury can be caused by  masturbation without lubicant or penile fracture and trauma.

Irritation inflammation:
-- tight clothing that rubs against the penis
-- new, unwashed fabrics
-- chemicals in laundry detergent
-- the latex in condoms
-- chemicals in spermicides for birth control
-- Vaginal dryness during sexual intercourse

Put ice on your penis shaft to bring down the swelling and see a doctor for a exam and  STD testing, for a correct diagnosis.
