Asphyxia

Im having a problem with my penis going numb and cold during traction with the rod system, and then i notice it only when the pain begins, i guess few minutes later,
I have noticed that with the belt this doesnt happen

However i am concerned about using the belt only.
I cant measure the tension and i worry about re-injuring from high tension, especially when changing positions (standing, sitting) and also i am worried about not using enough tension

Of course i wouldnt worry as much if i used the belt as something complementary when going outside or something, my concern is relying on the belt solely

My choise is either to use the belt, or to use very low tension with the rod system(i think i dont get numbness, coldness and pain from 400 grams and blow)

As of now i cant figure out why i get numbness, coldness and pain but if i could then figuring that out is the top priority

What would you guys do?

What traction system are you using?   I use the PMP and don't  get any symptoms like you describe.  The special glans chamber is designed to help protect against that.

I use the PMP aswell, the numbness i think is not from the glans chamber, more likely the base of the rod system blocking the blood flow, i often disconnect the glans chamber from the rod system for half a minute and feel the blood rushing in, and then i put it back

I understand exactly.  I also have something similar to that. I have pain around the base of my penis right where the bottom ring lays on top of my pubic bone area.   This usually is about after 2 hours of wearing.  I just pop the glans chamber out of the cradle and massage the area for about 2 minutes then I am good to go for another 2 hours. Try it.

A system that clamps on your glans will restrict blood flow there. I always used a VED for a few minutes before and a few minutes right after traction to promote oxygenation.

The pain i experience is due to the lack of blood reaching the tissue, the pain is specifically where the scar is and it might last for hours afterwards if i dont catch it in time.

And it isnt the glans chamber that restricts the blood flow
Because as i pop the glans chamber out of the rod system i keep the glans chamber on, yet i feel the blood rushing back in and takes the pain away(or most of it, sometimes)

Also it doesnt happen with the belt so..

I used to have blood flow restriction from the glans chamber and it feels kind of different, a sensation of internal itchiness sometimes

In my case its completely numb yet painful so if i touch my penis
I dont feel it.

So im guessing either the base ring restricts the blood flow or the upwards/downwards stretching is suboptimal compared to sideways in terms of the blood flow, probably its just that  upward/downward stretching causes the base ring to press on the base of my penis,

And if that is the reason then the real question is why everyone else can maintain blood flow despite the ring pressing the base of the penis and i cant

I have managed to cause more pain even with the usage of the belt though, i guess i must've applied too much tension with the way i was pulling on the belt before wrapping the belt around my thigh so i am kinda torn between those 2 choises

I would suggest  then going with the least amount of tension and see if that resolves the issue.  Then if it does you can gradually increase the tension until you find your sweet spot.
