pain in glans when cycling questions

[rayhay]

Hey Guys

5 weeks post op from Dr Eid. Been cycling since day 3. Usually do 3 times a day from 30-60 mins on avg. My issue is when fully inflated I get an aching pain in glans. It starts out mild immediately at full inflation and gets progressively worse to the point where I can't take it anymore. Have actually avoided sex a few times to not feel discomfort after. Spoke to Eid about it and he said "its normal, see you in 3 months" which was no help. smh So hopefully you guys can shed some light on your experiences so I know what to expect.

Questions:

1.If you experienced similar pain in glans, how long before it subsided?

2. Is it beneficial to cycle thru the pain?

3. Any suggestions to managing the pain?

4. I am a .5 inch shorter than preop, could this be stretching?

Any feedback would be helpful

Thanks

This is normal and a sign of a properly sized implant. Simply keep cycling and take painkillers. Don’t worry wuss out and think it’s not normal.
The cycling and tolerating the pain will allow you to regain your length.

I have been dealing with the same thing. The pain starts gradually getting worse the longer I stay inflated. I inflate to the absolute max when cycling and some less for sex. It's still more than hard enough for penetration, and relieves the glans pain. It's a solution that works for me, might for you as well. I'm noticing when cycling it is hurting less, and taking longer to start hurting, so I guess things are stretching out.

Hey, thanks for the suggestion. will definitely try it. So you are about 6 months post op and still having pain. I guess I have a long ways to go... smh.

I am three and a half years post-op and leaving myself inflated (to the maximum) still gets uncomfortable after a long enough time.

I am not worried, as I don't leave myself inflated long enough to do damage to the tissues in my glans. My girlfriend keeps saying I am getting longer. (I think it is because I have lost about 15 pounds, thus thinning the pad of fat tissue over my pubic bone and exposing a bit more penis length.)

2 months post surgery here. Interestingly my glans pain has always been on the right side. The left has been pain free from the beginning.
Within the last 2 to 3 weeks the pain has diminished.

The pain was there when I fully inflated, maxed out. And after a long session with my girlfriend. One thing I noticed was I felt no pain during sex. Am guessing my mind blocked it.

Sorry, Just to be clear are saying if you cycle every few days there in no pain but if you wait a week or longer to cycle then the pain comes back?
