Hello
Thanks for your query,
You have developed infection of the subcutaneous tissue of the penis due to unprotected oral sex

Oral cavity is full of multiple bacterial flora hence prone to get infection of genitals transmitted through unhygienic or unprotected oral sex .

You need to take broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefexine along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily.along with topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice daily.

Ensure to wash your genitals with warm water twice daily

Ensure to avoid sexual encounters till it heals up completely.
