Take him to the vets to see what they say. Hopefully everything goes well
You will need to take your piggy to the vet, there may be an injury or infection there there needs diagnosing and treating

A Vet check is definitely needed for this.

I agree. Please see a vet as he could have an infection or a piece of hair caught around his penis. Please let us know how you get on

last night when I saw it, I gave him a warm bath and he pooped a lot. once he was out of the bath I checked again and it was gone, like he’s not swollen anymore. I checked again this morning and he’s still okay nothing is swollen
