Stretching Progress

Written by Greg at 10 May 2002 09:27:17:

Hi-
I have some interesting news to report. This may actually be of some worth to some people here (can't some of you take your arguments somewhere else!)
As some of you may remember, I was having problems with tears during stretching. That was probably due to my being over-anxious. I was using rubber stoppers placed inside the foreskin for hours at a time. Anyway, after letting my cuts heal, I tried again using the methods posted by tmtanec (what a help, thanks!). I found that I had remarkable results. In fact, I can now retract fully when erect though there is still some tightness which I will work out. What this proved to me, is that in MY case, the exercises worked better than the stoppers. However, I think that what is important here is the difference in application. The stoppers, when left in a long time created too much stress. The exercises, though perhaps creating even more stress, did so for short periods of time, but at more regular intervals. Thus the stoppers might work just as well, provided that you use them sparingly. Just my observation.
What's most interesting is this: I stopped using the cream for about two days, and the opening of my foreskin got very sore from the stretching (which I was still doing of course). It had never been painful before. So I started using it again, and really almost instantly, the pain subsided. In fact, after just 24 hours of cream usage, again there is no pain. I offer that maybe this cream is a more important element to this process than has been suggested. Before, the pain was enough that I would have had to stop stretching for a few days. Interesting, eh? In fact, now that I think about it, I was applying the cream irregularly before when using the stoppers...could that have been my problem and not the time exposure? Any thoughts are welcome.
Regards,
Greg
