Is it possible to have a penile fracture without pain or swelling?

Is it possible to have a penile fracture with no swelling or pain?  For context, last night I heard a popping sound in that area when erect. There was no immidiete pain or swelling. I urinated about 1 minute afterwards and had a slight burning feeling in my urethra and an uncomfortable moving feeling. That burning stopped altogether 1-2 minutes after I finsihed urinating and I have urinated multiple times since then without any pain or discomfort. I applied a cold compress for 15 minutes at 2 intervals. I monitored it for hours, and had a 3 hour sleep gap in between. Like I said earlier there is no pain and no noticable swelling (definately not like in the pictures). I did have a popping sound happen a few months earlier, but since I was fine then and afterwards I did not think much of it, since at that time I had not yet heard of a penile fracture. I know that you will almost certainly advise me to seek medical attention, however I do not think that my parents are likely to take me to a doctor, unless I experience swelling and bleeding. I am 16. At the time of writting this it is about 12 hours after. Thank you in advance for your answer.

You don't have pain or swelling. That makes this non urgent. If you had a penis fracture, you'd have swelling and likely discoloration (bruising type look). There are ligaments and whatnot. Did you immediately lose your erection immediately?
