Hi,
Swelling in penis at this age of 92 years is a matter of concern which might be related to infection or inflammation of the penis. In my opinion you should immediately consult your doctor for physical examination and a course of antibiotics if need be.
Constipation might be caused by oxycodone. I would advise you for the laxatives like liquid paraffin or lactulose 30ml for bowel evacuation and get relieved from constipation. Meanwhile have lots of fluids and maintain good hygiene.
Hope this answers your question. Please feel free to ask for follow up question I will gladly answer you.
Best wishes,
