A scary time: wound separation and possible undersizing

Hi gang, Tough time here today: 1. I’m +20 days from surgery and the wound, not painful and with many stitches fully healed has separated right at the centre (cruciform incision), not by much (<2mm). A little pink but normal for healing I understand. I have no fever, no pain and no swelling. There i...

It will all fall into place, follow your dr’s instructions. No worries enjoy the next few months. One day at a time. The pumps will come.


Thanks cbinspok!

Re: A couple of questions from a recent implantee

To soften up the pump I was told to get in a hot bath for cycling. I waited 6 weeks per my doctor's instructions. I tried the bath a couple of times and it was too much messing around. I went to Walmart and bought a small heating pad and it worked great. Now my pump is very flexible and easy to pum...

Re: A couple of questions from a recent implantee

The pump is hard in the beginning, but will get softer over time and you will learn how best to squeeze with more experience and I promise you, you'll love your dick! (Check my video and see how easy you can squeeze and inflate your implant. The swelling goes down and up during the day but overall ...

Re: A couple of questions from a recent implantee

Joho: congratulations on your 18 cm LGX. Granted, my bias is inevitable as that’s the only implant I’ve had and I’m just now approaching the 5 year mark. But based on my experience, and talking to a lot of guys on here, you’ve got the equivalent of a Toyota pickup truck installed. It might last dam...

Re: A couple of questions from a recent implantee

My surgeon has his patients start cycling at one week after surgery, but that's partially due to the particular approach he takes to the surgery. When I started it, in his office, I put about 7 pumps in and thought it looked good. He said "do you think that's hard now, and that's the right num...

Re: A couple of questions from a recent implantee

I have a titan with the. Lassi. But had very similar experience. At first I was doing good to get 3-4 pumps in but that number grew monthly to about 24-25 full and then a few baby pumps. Hour way early to even be concerned. You’ll get it back if properly sized. Give it a few months and then tell us...

A couple of questions from a recent implantee

Hi All, I've updated my journal today if anyone's interested but have a couple of specific questions for the more experienced: 1. On pumping, I'm only managing to get 2-3 pumps in, then the bulb is going hard. I'm implanted with a LGX, so is that likely to change over time? I'm young and my dexterit...

A journal I hope to update…

Day + 8 So here I am, back in the UK. Much less sore every day. I think ultimately, I'd describe the experience as a mixed bag :lol: . I'll try and summarise what's happened as bullet points to save me rabbiting on too much: -Care in the Turkish hospital was excellent: the nurses especially were inc...
