I'm almost 2 months post and am unable to deflate my otr pump, it's not a full erection, but the cyinders are hard I've spent a lot of hours trying to deflate to no avail, it's been three days, everything seems okay, glans has color.

I can feel the correct button, I've tried squeezing it easy, squeezing it hard and nothing works, I've had issues with the deflation and pumping but it's been working till now, I guess I'll be getting it replaced, it almost feels like the tubing is kinked cause the bulb is hard as a rock, before the pump was hard sometimes and super soft sometimes, which i'm thinking could be the tubing or the plug in the valve is cocked causing issues.

Trekfish I'd recommend seeing the doc you implanted you and /or the Cololast representative and get the prosthesis checked and at the same time get them to critique you deflation procedure.

Are you holding the valve and squeezeing your dick with other hand? After that you have to reverse stoke it start at the head and go to the base do this several times. After that I push the head toward the base. You should be able to feel the cyclinder a tell if all the fluid is out. Once all the fluid is out, since you the otr vive the pump 1 quick squeeze to stop autoinflate

I've deflated quite a few times and I squeeze my penis while I do it, so I basically know how to do it, and it's almost always different which doesn't make sense, I am a quadriplegic so my hands have lost sensitivity and strength but I can feel the difference in the buttons and still have enough strength to put lots of pressure on the button, it doesn't make any sense to me, so I'm planning on getting an appointment with my doctor.

Can you actual feel the cyclinders when you deflate? I agree talking to dr would be best

Trekfish ..... I see you used the word "button".... Titan has "buttons"..... I'm sure you know that but..... Anyway, or implants do get easier to inflate, deflate and use in general with practice and particularly as the swelling subsides. Your's probably will too. Good luck and try not to "over worry"......

I suggest you contact one of our members (bbb2.5). He is a patient educator for Coloplast, Good luck.

thanks for the replies, I finally got it down, for some reason this morning the buttons got very hard and everytime I squeezed them there was a pop, it's like they finally realigned again. I'm wondering if I was squeezing too hard and was deforming the valve.
