Is pain good or bad?

Recently I began a new traction device. Results are impressive. Curvature seems to have reduced ever so slightly. Have night time and morning erections that are stiff. Without the aid of Viagra. However, pain has started at the point where curvature is.

2 theories come to mind. The plaque is breaking up. Causing pain. Allow it to dissipate. Continue treatment or

Pain is a bad sign. Ease up on traction.

Would really appreciate your thoughts or experiences please?
Latest routine. Started l-lysine 3mg daily, l-proline 5mg daily. Increased vit c intake. Accompanied with almost daily vacuum therapy. Pumping to 100% Exercise caution! Made good progress. L arginine supplements and prescribed potaba are helping.

I would take a small break or lower the tension of the device. I once injured myself again by doing too much traction and it took months to recover.
I think pain is never a good sign.
Curve: 35°
Traction, heat, pelvic floor exercises, L-citrulline

I dunno, i think it depends on the type of pain. But there were periods where i experienced pain right on the scar tissue. Indeed i believe it's because the scar tissue is breaking up. And so you want to continue to do traction. You certainly don't want to break up the scar, then stop and cause even *more* contraction by the shortening of the new scar.

The idea is to break up the scar tissue, and have new healthy (semi-scar) tissue form in an elongated state.

So i'd say it's good. Now if the pain is say new areas, in the smooth muscle - then i'd say back off just a bit. You may have to 'build' up your penis to the tension being applied.
Injury in April 2020. Onset of ED.
Started RestoreX and VED 2 months after injury.
Taking 10mg daily cialis, pentox, coq10, vit-e.
