Thanks Red, for your reply. I agree, I don't want to stop now, when I'm (finally) gaining. First I'll detail my routine
A) I apply a warm, wet cloth to my partially or fully erect penis. Replace and reheat every minute or so as the cloth cools. I do this for 3-5 minutes
B) Apply vaseline and Jelq for about 20 minutes with the occasional DLD bend and Isolated Compression Squeeze or ULI.
C) Next I achieve a full erection, wrap at the base and apply the clamp, but not too tight. I then achieve the fullest erection I can, Kegel, and clamp tight. Then, it's just a combination of squeezes, bends and "edging". But I noticed when I do an intense squeeze, this is when it stings. Understandably I guess because this is when the most pressure is applied not just to the inner tissue but the surface skin as well. I do a 20 minute session usually, remove the clamp and light jelq for a few minutes, then reapply after everything is nice and pink again (The discolored area does not become pink though.) I think this stinging sensation is probably, in my opinion, from tiny tears in the skin from the pressure. And, since I took off 4 days, maybe I just hit it too hard and should have allowed several easy days before a major clamping onslaught.
D) After I finish a total of 30-40 minutes clamped, I remove the clamp and reapply hot compresses for a few minutes, then apply a rubber
cock ring I have that's snug enough to keep a partial engorgement for a good half hour before I start to feel a little numbness, at which point I remove the ring and I'm done for the day.
The area that stings is the same area that is discolored, and I mean REALLY discolored! I don't dare strip down in front of someone as their first words would be "What the hell happened to you!", It's that dark, almost purple. So, that's about the jist of it I guess. I surely don't want to stop now. Maybe I just need to slow down a bit and gradually, very gradually, work up to 30 minute clamp sessions. Hope I've detailed my routine sufficiently for you, and I welcome any suggestions you may have.
