erosion of the implant photo

This is what I was referring to in my post a few days ago. The tip of my left implant cylinder is pushing against the frenelum (sp?) the same as you see in this other guys picture (except his problem is on the right side). I am due to activate/inflate next week, and maybe I am just a little paranoid, but is this likely to happen to me then (or when having sex afterward)? The problem is due to the fact that the left side tip stops short of the glans/head (just as this guys right side does). The right side goes just barely into the glans.

That's not pretty! I hope you can get some input from your doc when you see him next week. Maybe they can adjust your inflation or something so that this doesn't happen to you. I am just guessing but they may have had to remove the implants in the picture until the area is healed over. I know that my first sex put a little strain on the tip area which was sensitive due the cylinder's pressure in the glans. I certainly hope you can get some info and a plan to combat this potential probem.

dmikesaw,
WOW!
That hurts just looking at it.
Thank you for sharing. I will be very interested in how your doctor deals with this.
It may be as simple as a couple of small stitches and letting it heal.
I wish you the best of luck for a good outcome.
Please keep us posted as I am sure everyone, including me, with implants will be watching
and waiting to see how this turns out. (No pun intended)
This could be a rather serious thing to deal with for a lot of us.

do you often prepare, ahead of time, for disaster? Relax and enjoy your new mantool! Living in the moment might help a lot too.

Thanks a lot pal! I am meeting with my Doc for the first time on Monday. I'm already scared, and now this?!?!?
Great! Another thing to worry about!

Don't worry too much; they say it is not too common
