What To Apply For The Tear In Urethra?

I am a 32y/o white male, 5'10", 180lbs. The tip of my penis has always been very sensitive. It has often become irritated during exercise, especially long runs or bike rides. A couple days ago I think I may have torn my meatus(pee hole) during masturbation. The hole seem slightly elongated. The tear is at the bottom. I've noticed that the area around the opening is a little red. In the 3 days since the injury when I urinate it comes out in a spray instead of a stream and causes a bit of a burning sensation. I began to apply a mild antibiotic cream to the torn area and the area around the opening that is red. It already seems to be getting better. Is there anything else I can do to speed up the healing process? Should I be conserned about possible infection? Is there anything I can do to help prevent further irritation or injury from exercise or sexual activity? Thanks.
