>It is rare that i experience pain after sex, but when i do get the pain, it is all around the hole in my foreskin, it is a red colour just around that area. I never experience pain when i masterbate or when i get an erection because the skin is soft and is not pulling tight when i get an erection.
>I have been using a device these past two days and i have seen some progress. I am using the end of a pen (not the end you write with). I cut it to a small size and i have been keeping it on all the time (i take it off when i pee) i even kept it on when i went to sleep. I do find it very uncomfortable as the pen is touching my head which feels sensitive, also when i do remove the device it seems to hurt alot more than when i put it in. This morning i found a more thicker device (in diameter) to put more tension on the hole. The one i was using yesterday seemed to be small because i can put it in very easily and also when i pull my skin back while the deivce is in , the device falls out so that shows progress as when i first used this device i found it hard to get in.
>Will the device cause any damage to my head because its touching it all the time ?
>You have convinced me to keep trying stretching, but i feel i need to be more patient. I will really give it a go. I really dont want to have surgery and the dorsil slit picture i saw looked terrible, i would be more embarrased to show that than the problem i got now.
>I am really thankful for all your help.
>AJ I just wanted to ask you,
>in your operation (partial circ) do they only cut enough skin just to go over the head when erect ? please tell me more about it ?
>do you have any scares or marks on your penis after the surgery ?
>are you happy with the outcome of the operation ?
>do you have to pay for this operation ?
>why did you give up the stretching method ?
>Thanks again for all your help. I will let you know how im getting on.
>Merry Christmas Guys and a Happy New Year (just incase i dont get to speak to you before)Yes, you can cause trauma to the glans if you have the devices presses on it too hard. Try putting a cotton ball in there if you can to relieve some of the pressure.
In regard to having anything at all cut, keep in mind that any cutting does cause loss of full function to that part. A certain amount of tightness in the opening is essential to proper feeling. Cutting off the end of the foreskin removes one of the most important parts, the frenar band. This, in combination with the frenulum, adds considerably to the sexual experience.
You've already made some good progress. Now it's just a matter of having some patience while you cure yourself. Good luck, and thanks for the wishes. Likewise to you.
