Do you think that your penis is always erected or what? How often are you masturbating? Penis is like a sponge and when it is erected it is filled with blood. It is you get an erection. I haven’t experienced this before to be honest, but I don’t masturbate really often. In my opinion, you should just stop masturbating for some time, and not just day or two; I am talking more about two or three weeks. And see if your penis is back to normal. Are you experiencing any pain?
I haven’t asked your how old are you? Sometimes you might experience some changes that you don’t expect, especially if you are in puberty now. Be careful and take care of your health.
I have had the same problem with the swelling from the vaseline. I think it is a reaction to the vaseline and maybe the petroleum. Once I stopped using it completely it stopped happening. My penis would swell up significantly for many days and I would have to apply ice and pressure to try and bring down the swelling. It was extremely painful. I am in my 40's and used vaseline as a lubricant for over 20 years.
