Hello. Sorry Zorro is having this issue. He really needs to see a vet immediately! That looks very abnormal and painful!
My guess is that he has had some trauma to the penis. He could have fractured the os penis which is a bone that lies at the base of the penis. He could have a blockage of his urethra. Regardless of the reason for the injury this could be a serious problem if left untreated. You need to get him to a vet ASAP.
