Brief Answer:
You do not need to do anything immediately, you need to see a urologist.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,Welcome back to HCM.

Please note that you have not harmed yourself by what you did, it will be sore, however, you may have under-active bladder and urinary retention that needs the attention of a urologist(which You have already sought as I can see).

There are medications that will help you to be regular and not have to strain or force yourself to urinate.

For now I would urge you not to keep pressing on your bladder.

I hope this helps.
Good luck.
