Do you get puffy "edema" below glan 15 minutes?

Postby billylee » Wed Nov 06, 2013 9:35 pm

I am using VED to try to gain size before IPP, if I stayed pumped for much more than 12-15 minutes I have a puffy ring just below glan. I assume it is edema built up in the "wrinkled" skin after releasing. It goes away after an hour or so, but was wondering if this is common or perhaps I am leaving pumped to long????? Appreciate any comments.billy

billylee,
Yes it's pretty common ... usually caused by too much pressure or too long in the tube. It's not harmful as long as it goes away ...

12 to 15 minutes at moderate to low vacuum should avoid the "doughnut" effect. I use a vacuum gauge on the pump I use for therapy and can pump for twenty minutes with the vacuum level below 5 in/hg without any excess edema. Even with significant edema, it has always disapated within a few hours.

Thanks for replies. I have since brought "hard" pumps to less than minute then giving some releif for a few minutes then pumping hard again. As suggested, This method keeps puffy ring from forming. Got to admit that hard pressure sure felt good for a few minutes, but that puffy ring looked scary, although gone in a few hours.
