VED softer (pain)

I have ED. Was told I have venous leakage.
I had not used VED in a few days.
Usually do it for about 15-20 minutes. 6lbs of vacume

I was using VED. After about 10-12 minutes I had some pain. Was not 2 bad.
I kept it on for a few more minutes. Took the VED off, no more pain. Maybe slightly sore.

That never happend before.

I used to be able to get somewhat firm.
Now it is almost impossible for me to get firm.

It has been a few days. I have not used the VED.
I started to use traction again.
Not as much before.

Not sure if should go see dr or this permanent.
If I did damage seeing dr would be waste of time anyway.
Not sure should try VED at less time and lower preasure.
Trying to get back lost length.

JB,
6 lbs. would not do any damage ... that's actually pretty light ... I pump at over 10, but that's just me ...

Where was the pain coming from ...

Hi Bionic

Shaft, underside. Not head.
Hate to say it
Not sharp. Dull. Pain is gone. No soreness either.
No readiness or bruising.
Been using heating pad.
Still having trouble getting firm. About a week now.
Thank you

Jamesbond,
Do you only get the pain while in the tube or do you have the same pain while using your traction device?

As for the firmness ... try a ring around the base of the shaft ... if you have venous leak, this should help maintain the blood in the chambers, rather than leaking out. I have the same issue ...

A ring like this ($6.50 - Amazon) works great with a pump ... just put it on prior to pumping and it will create a seal ... or fold up the ears and let the tube make the seal. No more snapping on the ring while in the tube (hurts!)

A heating pad works wonders ... I used to do that prior to pumping. Or while wearing the traction device ... my head used to get cold.

Hi Bionic

Just happened when I was using the VED.
Have not used it again.

End of this week I will try VED again.

I have used stretcher a few times but not had time to use it everyday.
That is not good

Thank you
