Traction device / nervous tissue damage/loss of sensation

[lespleen]

I was wondering if the subpopulation of peyronies patients who suffer loss of sensation , numbness and other disorders associated with nerve damage of some kind or another experienced relief using the traction device? My nervous tissue damage would seem to be located on the dorsal side near and including some part of the glands. Perhaps wrapping a "noose" around my glands when using the traction device would be a bad idea? Then again, perhaps the long term effects of traction would ultimately prove beneficial.

Given your history you could perhaps be a good candidate for a penimaster pro device. The glans gets sucked into the vacuum chamber, actually it feels almost good and the glans is protected by the latex. You do not crush it with a strap like other devices. The important thing is the rod tension. But if you are not afraid of strap devices I have an andropenis with spare parts that I can sell for half the price, or even less, if you are not far from Paris. But be warned it is a piece of crap. In fact I would be ashamed to sell it. Or maybe to my worst enemy.

Indeed, the penimaster pro device looks to be about the best and most practical of any of the traction devices i've seen so far. Thanks for the heads up, Obsie. My initial question still stands: has anyone with reduced sensation and or nervous damage of any kind produced by the peyronies process generally benefited from traction? If length, width, blood flow and quality of erectile strength increase through traction than it would stand to reason that it might benefit associated nervous disorders?

Yes, it makes sense, and traction devices do bring some sensation back, but It seems VEDs would also be helpful in your case. I have not used them, but some people report good results in terms of sensations.

We need to stay objective regarding both. As everyone's Peyronies symptoms are different, traction may help in some cases and VEDs help in others. We can't say that one over the other is the 'recommended' solution.

So along those lines, when someone joins the forum and says they have Peyronies, we need to understand better their symptoms and not just say you need this and this.

I find we still have new members posting saying they have Peyronies when in fact they have not been officially diagnosed and may not have Peyronies. I have learned there are many problems that can go wrong with a penis.

If someone says "my head hurts, I have a headache", we universally suggest aspirin or Tylenol. The you later find out the person hit their head and has a concussion.

The point is that the wrong therapy can do more damage.

I could not say it better.
However Lepleen is not a new member and if I am correct he was diagnosed? If I am wrong my apologies.

after 1 week of traction, deterioration and lost of size, no erection at all and not much feeling in the orgasm
man!!! life sucks!!

[itamarzil]

by loss of sensation I mean the orgasm is abosolutely damaged and numbed. that's what happend to me.
I used traction for 1 week and the situation only getting worse.. loss of size and stuff like that..
tell me something, if I have bend to the left side, should I use the traction device differently or not?

[LWillisjr]

You should use the device as recommended. It should apply equal tension along the Tunica. Some guys have tired to wear theirs differently depending on which way they curve. But I have not seen or heard of any evidence that this makes any difference.

@ itamarzil and Lespleen

I feel for you guys with regards to sensation and orgasm issues.  Both myself and Agent 0 are in the same boat.  In my case for 2 years and his case 5 years.  That makes four of us on this board with numbness/sensation/ lack of orgasm issues along with peyronies.  I got my first Pentox prescription today along with a Viagra script so I hope this works as my new urologist does not seem to want to try anything else.  I will probably look into adding traction to my regimen as well.  Will let you guys know how it works.  Please also let me know of any improvements on your part.
