What Causes Painful Erections?

Hi for the last 5 days, when I wake up I have an erection that hurts, once erection is gone, the penis hurts just below the tip,it s been hurting all day. There is no pain when I urinate or discoloration in fluids or penis. No sexual activity in over 9 months, yes masturbation but not in 5 days. The penis almost feels numb or even cold.
