In an attempt to gain girth, I tend to inflate to the maximum possible pressure, using 2 thumbs on the vanity top, then go to bed.
However, after about an hour or two, I wake up with an aching dick, mostly in the glans area.
What I'm wondering is whether the pain indicates that some tissues are being damaged (a bad thing), or whether the pain is a positive indicator of the corpi(?) and tunica slowly stretching (a good thing)?
If the latter, then I'm happy to endure a longer, more aggressive session for the greater good.
Does anyone have any authoritative information on this?

Doggedly, I still get pain in my glans if I leave my dick fully inflated for more than an hour.
It did take me a long time, around 6 months before I didn’t have pain in my glans when fully inflated for at least an hour, but it did get better after 6 months and eventually I could make it close to two hours.
I’m at 5 years with my AMS LGX and if forget deflate or I fall asleep with my dick fully inflated, it will start hurting around the two hour mark and wake me up.
I’m not trying to gain more length; sometimes I like to be totally ready to have sex with my wifey and when it doesn’t happen, I forget and fall asleep.
Doggedly, let your young frisky wife exercise your bionic dick for as long as you can take it and then deflate, give a rest and then inflate again.
That does work for me when I have left it inflated for a long time.
I’m not sure if you’re causing any erosion; just listen to your body and deflate when it starts hurting.
Good Luck,

An hour is about the limit for me. Starts to get pretty uncomfortable at that point. I notice it more if I've cycled, and get busy reading and forget about the time. On the other hand, if we're still romping in bed after an hour, I don't seem to notice it until the activity concludes

Re: Is pain after an hour of maximum inflation a good sign?
Doggedly, I'm similar to our Texan brother SWorks. I can leave mine fully inflated for 75 minutes or longer but it will start to hurt eventually. I feel it more at the base than in the glans, but also along the shaft. I can push through it and go longer without any major discomfort, but usually prefer the relief of deflating at that stage. I still like to do a really long cycling session when I have time, but finding it happens less frequently now due to other commitments. I've never left mine fully inflated overnight. I have done it partially pumped and it was aching and a bit sore in the morning. I'm typically 100% inflated for sex for an hour or more. After a rigorous extended workout of PIV I can feel a bit aching and sore by the time I eventually deflate post orgasm. But that fades fairly quickly. I've come to accept all of that as normal for me. Don't know if I can expect any further increase in either length or girth after ~18 months but I believe in keeping the tissue stretched, as the ED is still there, just now masked by the implant. "Use it or lose it" is my motto

I know we’ve all done the max honk down on the pump maneuver to get more out of it, but I don’t think it’s really necessary. You can feel that slight soreness when you are maxed out, and that’s a sign things are stretching. No need to get a lot of pain, just pump to that point of slight discomfort and leave it there a while. It’s better for gains in the long run IMO to get an hour in with slight discomfort than 20 minutes of it feeling like your dick is going to burst.
