This is strange... it would be logical to see discoloration with the Bib- since it is not a vacuum hanger, but a constriction-based one. The only thing I can advise you is to just so it 100% flaccid, and do not go for sets longer than 20 minutes. If you start seeing discoloration after the 15th minute- you might want to do 15 minute sets then. When you stop the set and take the hanger off you will get new, fresh blood come in the penis, which should make the temporary discoloration disappear... :)

Thank you for the advise. I will see what I will start with again. Many options.

I got up to around 11-12 pounds with the BIB hanger too, same time on the sessions as with the LG.

Yes from LG hanger, where the silicone was shorter than what it is sold with today. Probably it will create discoloration the longer silicone too. The discoloration may be less with more warm-up (I used heating lamp all the time) and the firegoat exercise after the sessions. I used to have 2x30 min sessions, or 2x20, or 2x 45 min, later in the program. BIB hanger didn`t make any discoloration. That got broken so I started with LG.

how much weight were you hanging with the LG? i could see why you would get discoloration..the LG is a vacuum seal. that leads to a much more likely chance of getting discoloration especially for longer sets and depending on weight used

It won't work that way. Every time I pump, I get fresh discoloration that fades back to natural after acv and a break.

how long of a break?

Usually when I wake up after using it at night, the color is close to normal. When I took my 2 weeks off, by the end of week one I was back to my original coloring that I was born with.

So it is a good preventative method, meaning using it after each session gets you back to a normal color?

Maybe it started from 5 pounds and up. Except for heating lamp I didn`t do anything to limit the discoloration.
 
dmoney - How often do you apply the ACV and how exactly?
I've seen improvements after rubbing it onto my dick a couple of times for the last two days, but the darker spots are still... well, dark. :(
 
I would stand over the toilet, pour an ample amount in my hand, then rub it all over my dick until it was saturated. Let it soak in over night. Keep in mind, as soon as you do more girth work, the bruising will reoccur.

Damn! Doesn't it smell that way? rofl!
 
Thanks! Atanding over the toilet seems to be a good start to get more ACV on my dick. :)
Damn, I was hoping to do some [words=http://www.mattersofsize.com/forum/penis-enlargement-forum/12539-slow-squash-jelq-nothing-give-me-better-expansion.html]SSJ[/words] to maintain girth... but if you say any girth work will make it worse again, I should take a real break it seems.

I have started with manual exercises again, and the discoloration and the bruising too maybe, seems more like it was before I treated it 2 months ago. Are you saying this is normal? That old discolorations/bruisings reappear some?

are you getting discoloration from manual work? or was it from girth work?
 
youknowme123321;621643 said:

The discoloration and the bruising was from hanging last winter. Manual work now seems to bring back some of the old color the old bruising had (which I "removed" in Sep).

Trombosis, is that much worse than bruising? I hope I didn`t get that last winter.

What is the difference between trombosis and bruising?

I recognized my injury as a bruising. How do I know that it is / was not a trombosis?

Very different things. Thrombosis is the hardening of a vein, local coagulation or clotting of the blood in a part of the circulatory system. It usually manifests itself as a hard string like vein just under the skin. A bruise is an injury appearing as an area of discolored skin on the body, caused by a blow or impact rupturing underlying blood vessels.

So based on the photo of my underside injury (from hanging, see earlier in the tread), do you recognize that as a bruising? And nothing worse? As known, it has been improved very much.
And can this limit my further PE? For instance with hanging or anything else.

I saw a clip of you where you said that trombosis was one of the biggest mistakes beginners do. What causes trombosis?
 
The ACV was doing something for me, but it stopped to help much more at one point.
Yesterday I found my AmLactin lotion (which I bought more than a year ago, because I had read somewhere on the forums, that it should help with discoloration) again and decided to use it...
After two times of using it, the darker spots got so much lighter, it's amazing!!!
If it continues to go like this, I should have no darker spots by the weekend. :)
 
Maybe you got adapted to the ACV and its effects at one point and it stopped working for you. It looks like changing is what works best for you. :)

Wow, that is good news! Maybe the ACV got you to a place where the AmLactin was able to work more effectively.
 
Well, it seems that I have to be more patient, though. The effect is not as strong anymore. :(
I will try to mix with DMSO tonight, as I should be able to get that from my work place. :)
 
It's possible that acv can only help mold to moderate discoloration. Everyone is different, so its about finding something to work for you. Hopefully dmso will get you where you want to be.
 
Just for those for whome ACV is too strong. I've been using a Turmeric mask (+_10min then rinse) on my unit against redness and it's working well. It's a bit milder than ACV but it does the trick very well.

You just keep coming out with the latest and greatest ways to correct color. Excellent work Film!
 
Had to postpone my DMSO experiment, as I got sick.
I started bathing my dick in a glass of ACV and put the AmLactin on later.
The bathing might work better for me, the discoloration has become less.
Hopefully it will continue like this.

Sorry to hear about you being sick, I hope you feel better soon!
 
Thank you, DLD, you're awesome.
I can use any positive words. Being sick and stressed with work I have to finish at the same time isn't the best feeling (and additionally, female friends can be really strange and hurting...).

Back to the discoloration: I kept bathing it in ACV, and sometimes I think it's quite good, sometimes I see, that the darker spots are still much darker than my original color.
The good thing is, that it keeps looking better from one day to the next.

Believe me, I completely understand, this past 2 weeks I have been sick with some bug and it just won't go away. I slept in yesterday to help but still feel sick. I decided to say fuck it and work today, I hate getting behind in work. My prayers go out to you and your quick recovery.

Being sick sucks man

Yeah, I feel a bit better today, still have a cough and runny nose but feeling a bit better.
 
I'm glad you're starting to feel better, DLD. :)
I will start working again tomorrow. Hopefully everything will be good. Thanks again!

I may have spoken too soon, today it seems like it is back again:(
 
Oh, that sucks, hope you'll feel better soon!!!

I'm okay it seems. Just have to finish a lot of work and get into my PE routine again.
The discoloration is getting better with every day, but it's a very slow process. Will try to speed it up tonight with my first DMSO+ACV treatment.

Wow! I really didn't expect this thing to work, I am surprised! Doesn't it make your penis smell funny?

And about the DMSO+ACV- make sure to report the results! :)
 
This is a really interesting thread. I had a wart up my shaft and had read that ACV would help get rid of it. I applied a bandage soaked in ACV and then did a hanging set with my vacuum hanger. Big MISTAKE! It got rid of the wart but I guess the vacuum pressure and moistness formed a blister and took all surrounding skin with it. I was left with a crater at the site, it did heal and fill up but I'm left with a permanent dime sized discoloration.

My new girlfriend recently discovered it in the shower. I told her I slammed some weights on it accidentally while trying to load up a bar for deadlifts. Oddly enough that has happened to me before but it didn't leave a bruise. I also used that to excuse some numbness I got from extreme twisting one day in the Malehanger that must've damaged some nerves before I switched to the Bib Hardcore. I told her it had an effect on me recently buy noticed it was getting better. Which thankfully I'm pleased to report my sensitivity is back in full force.

Anyway she mentioned trying to use ACV which she used to use in high school to get rid of hickies. I'm willing to try it. The other thing I've been doing is Firegoat rolls and pinches from thunders

Wow, sorry to hear about the permanent bruise, I too have one on my shaft from picking at an ingrown hair. Live and learn in PE. I guess your girl does not mind it and it is so cool she is trying to help you.
 
Well, maybe it makes the penis smell funny, but I don't care as I don't let anybody come too close to it. ;)
And of course it's too early to tell how good the DMSO+ACV really works, but I'm almost sure I'm seeing a big improvement after two treatments (keep your fingers crossed). :)

Damn, that was a big mistake indeed! Why did you do it? Plus, the bruise might not be permanent, over time it might fade, who knows, just wait. You can use other PE creams recommended on the forum to get rid of it. :)

Haha "Why did you do that?" I ask myself that question everyday and not just with PE matters.

I had soaked a small piece of cotton ball in ACV and put a bandaid over that. I then wrapped the glans with paper tape and over wrapped with Coban tape. I don't remember feeling any itching or tingling and if I did I might have just figured it was irritation from the bandaid. God I can be so stupid sometimes! I guess the moisture of the cotton ball mixed with uneven compression of the bandaid was a perfect spot for a blister. Totally got rid of the wart though.... Silver lining! As DLD said you live and learn.
 
ACV is seriously a miracle for a multitude of reasons. Did you know it can also be used to catch fruit flies too? I will seriously have to look into it for my discoloration as I have quite a bit right now.

longstretch;624936 said:
Oh the blister is long gone. All that is left is the discolored skin where the blister was.

That may clear up, it really depends on how deep the injury was. I still have one bruise from 10 years ago that is still there, it has gotten much lighter but still remains.

Let me know. I am considering adding DMSO but I'm afraid since I'm not sure what kind of affect it will have. Right now I use both, but separately.

I still have a long way to go before I address discoloration, but it isn't the worst thing in the world. I have found that discoloration mainly comes from intense girth work, in my case clamping.
 
Still using ACV+DMSO, but the progress has slowed down.
How long has it taken you guys with bad discoloration to get rid of it???

I'm even thinking about starting girth work again, as it's taking forever.
I just need to only look at my dick in erect state, in which the discoloration is more or less not visible. :)
