So I'm wearing this thing for at least 5 hours daily 5-6 days a week. It sometimes causes pain and swelling near the left base - where I previously had an injury. It is affecting my erection quality as well.
My question is do I continue to move forward with the traction? Is that a normal thing? Or should I give it a rest... It was part of a therapy to remove or correct scar tissue but I'm not sure if that was supposed to happen during the treatment. I am using 1 notch less than the max tension on the penimaster pro - so not out of bounds of what was suggested for the traction. Should I lower it and continue?
How does your glans feel on the penimaster pro? Is it like a vacuum? Does it swell a lot while using it?
Any gain in length?
Are you taking breaks from the device after 1 hour or so?
It's pretty comfortable and can increase length lost from peyronies.
Hey Redwilly,
Traction is definitly good for Peyronie, IF done properly. The thing is, we don't have a perfect consesus on this "properly"; the only advice I can give you is to listen to your body: if you do feel that the traction painfully compresses a part of your active scar tissue, don't use it until the pain has disappeared.
I personnally had to stop traction for a time when I had a great pain just under the glans, where the platic noose of my device (Andropeyronie) was pushing... Now I have started over again, and it seems to go well so far.
So, try to do traction as much as you can, but modify or stop your activities at the moment you feel additional pain!

I regained both in length and girth only at the scar tissue site. Length gain was about half and inch and girth gain was about .25 at the site of the scar tissue.

This is good advice. I'm feeling pain at scar tissue site - again. I'm going to continue with a more conservative approach.
If you're not on Pentox already that can help with the pain.
Hey RedWilly,
Congrats for your gains in length and girth, that is VERY good news!! How long and for how many hours a day have you been using traction before seeing these greats results?
Personally I began to use my brand new PMP last week: I must say it changes everything compared to Andropeyronie. I can now do traction for 3-5 hours a day almost everyday without feeling any discomfort, pain, irritation, etc... I now pray for results, as I'm 1,5cm short in length and 30% in girth...
PS: Redwilly, JS is right: if you're not already on all the oral stuff we use (ptx, ALCAR, cialis, etc.), they could be very helpful with pain. And if you're sore in flaccid state, you can check my essential oils recipe (just research my recent posts) which works very well regarding this issue.
Cheers
Also, diclofenac sodium gel can help w pain.
Gabriel, i did 4-9 hours daily over the course of 6 months. I averaged 6 days a week. So about 48 hours a week. I noticed improvements at maybe 1st month but it took a while to gain the length and girth back.
I suffered from ED at the time. So i was taking cialis daily. Later i was prescribed Pentox.
My ed has since improved after taking cialis nightly for about 8 months. I just recently stopped taking cialis as my prescription expired. It's been about 5 days. I'm able to get some erections (not 100% cured) although i do not have morning wood like i did when on cialis.
