Post plication blues

[Mark123]

I had a plication procedure 5.5 weeks ago.  Recovery has been good with only mild pain during erections.  While some shortening is expected, it is bothering me more than I expected it would.  Has anyone tried traction or other techniques post surgery to recover length?  And when is it safe to do so?

Good question, you might want to check with your surgeon. Mine did suggest traction after 6 weeks post op. But you definitely need to start off with slight traction. Do not get aggressive with it right away.

As LWillisjr said, it's best to ask your Dr. and wait a few months before you can use traction.

I'm in the same boat and trying to recover the length lost, but I do see a slight improvement.
