Desensitize: You have probably desensitized the region. Leave it alone for a few weeks and see how that works.

Masturbation: I doubt you damaged anything. Often times it takes a bit more stimulation if you have been rough. If you cannot reach orgasm either with masturbation, a vibrator, or with your partner go in for a visit.
