Title: VED issue - swelling WARNING - PICS
Post by: jj21 on March 11, 2019, 05:42:24 AM
When using the VED - i'm unable to pump to a full erection. I get to about 50% then the base of my penis seems to swell a bit - not sure if that is normal? The suction then becomes too tight and I stop.. Probably only 50-60% erection.

I tried to become semi-erect then start pumping at which point I was able to reach 80% erection.

I am wondering is the diameter of the VED cylinder too large or is the rubber seal too tight perhaps?

This exact same thing happens to me. I find that using a smaller cylinder helps, as it only happens to me in the largest or C cylinder. Going in semi flaccid helps, as do some kegels. It's hit or miss though and very annoying.

Thanks JS - I did notice kegels and going in semi-erect helps. Hawks advice on milking back n forth between pumps helps a bit too.

I'm unable to purchase smaller cylinders as VED's are very expensive where I am.

It is written in the protocols to pump to the level that you have no pain or uncomfortable feeling.
Adhere to the above and will have no swelling, but swelling during the session is a normal thing if subsides after a few minutes.
