Throbosed vein on penis and constant pain

Over 4 months ago, I began to experience a soreness, at times a pain,
in the penis. I noticed a small bump on the shaft which urologists
have diagnosed as a thrombosed vein.Around the same time, the long vein
which runs along the length of the penis started to bulge out and ache.I
surmise that a trauma occurred in the wake of a series of sexual encounters in which too much pressure was manually exerted onto the penis.
Any contact with the thrombosed vein or the long protruding vein
causes great discomfort.Not only does sex or masturbation seem to aggravate
matters, but it seems every daily act( walking, sitting, wearing
pants or underwear) causes friction and thus pain to the penis.
There has been no improvement whatsoever. In fact, things seem to be getting more bothersome. The doctors I saw told me to wait 6 months to
see if things heal. If not,they said they can remove the thrombosed vein. Will this alone
resolve all the problems and return me to my former state ? Is there
anything I can take or do to help clear up the clot and ease the vein
that is bulging out painfully ? One doctor told me aspirin could help.I have taken it for several weeks and cannot believe
it is safe to keep taking aspirin like this. Should I abstain
from sex and masturbation for a few months to help things heal ? Any help will be much appreciated.
