Big vein

Hey guys I got a question I had something weird happen after my pumping. I pulled the tube off and there was a huge vein right at the top of the base of my shaft it looked kinda bundled up. Everything is working fine no discomfort or unusual sensations or redness but I have never seen it before. If anybody has any experience with this I would appreciate it. I have had no problems with the routine and everything has been great. I do know that part of the goal is to enlarge your veins to allow more blood flow but this vein seemed almost like bubblish. Anyway it has already subsided but any info would be appreciated.

If it has subsided, don’t worry about it. It is almost impossible to diagnose over the internet and without a photo.

If it starts to happen consistently, try to take note of how long you have pumped for before it happens, what vac levels, how long it lasts after removing the tube etc. so that we have something more to go on. It’s probably something as simple as the vein being closed off by pressure from the tube for a little while.

I feel better about it now I was just a little worried because I haven’t seen it before. It showed up after I pulled the tube off and then quickly was gone but then I rested for my 5 minutes and when I started doing my jelks it showed up again. I noticed that if I jelked straight out or even slightly upward it was covered up by skin but when I got lazy and was pulling slightly down it would surface. Ill take your advice and keep an eye on it and pay closer attention to my tube placement and my angle when I am doing my jelks.

I had soreness around the big vein tonight the surrounding area is not discolored but very sore to touch and the vein was sore. I am going to take some time off and am wondering what period of time is acceptable or should I just take it day today until it does not feel sore anymore.

As Firegoat says it is a bit difficult to tell what is going on with no visual, it may be a lymph vessel that is getting blocked by the pressure from the tube or a vein, perhaps take a break for a couple of weeks and start back with the newbie routine.

You didn’t say what PE you were doing. It sounds like it may be from friction/skin stretch. If you are using a vacuum tube and the skin is being stretched and pulled into the tube past the rim of the tube it could cause soreness. Maybe try lubing the area where the tube sits, and the base of the tube and see if that helps?

I only get the big vein after pumping but I’ve just excepted it. I rub on it right after pumping and it subsides usually within a minute. The vein just looks like a branching point at the base of my penis that seems to swell to the point of hardness only after pumping, but since it always subsides quickly when I massage it out I do not really worry about it anymore.

I have decided to take four weeks off PE because of this vein. I did some research and found the problem convincingly, to be a thrombosis of the superficial dorsal vein. I identified the vein off of Wikipedia and found an article that sealed the deal off of PE Gym. I started PE in September and since then have gained a quarter of an inch in length and girth. Hopefully those gains will come back quickly or stay. This article describes it perfectly so I guess the good news is nothing serious and while I take a month off I can hit the gym even harder and focus more on that. I am a little torn because I have made good gains using the pump and jelqing but I hate to keep banging my head on the wall if pumping is going to continue this. If anybody has any experience with this good or bad I would appreciate any advice. I would like to think that once it heals I could continue pumping and everything would be great but don’t know. I recently messed around with hanging and it was cool but the time it takes out of your day is too much for me. I hear lot of good things about clamping and have tried it once or twice to my satisfaction. I hear that is pretty dangerous as well though.

In our center between 1992 and 1994 penile Mondor’s disease (superficial dorsal penile vein thrombosis) was diagnosed in 5 patients aged 20-39 years. In all patients the thromboses were noted 24-48 hours after a prolonged sexual act with or without an intercourse. The main symptom was a cord-like thickening of the superficial veins, which were painless or slightly painful. Doppler examination of the superficial dorsal vein revealed obstruction of the vessels. In 2 patients the retro-glandular plexus was also involved. Patients were treated with anti-inflammatory medications (Tenoxicam or Ibuprofen). The resolution of the thrombosis occurred uneventfully within 4-6 weeks. No recurrence or erectile dysfunction was noted in any of the patients. Penile Mondor’s disease is a benign pathology of the superficial dorsal penile vein and should be taken into account in the differential diagnosis of penile pathologies.

I am wondering if I edge say tomorrow and the vein is not enlarged or I can no longer see it then that might mean its just a lymph vessel. I have read post by memento and firegoat that explain this but I do not know how to differentiate. There really isn’t anything to see from a picture point of view it just looks like a knot at the base of my penis and you have to bend it just a tad to see it. I can run my finger over it and it rolls around

Ok I am obsessing over this which is not at all my personality. Ok I just worked my self up to an erection and no vein or bulge. I am thinking this is what memento and fire goat are talking about just a lymph vessel.

I took measurements today and BPEL was 6.5 inches and MSEG was 5.0 inches. I about jumped out of my skin when I realized I had already gained a quarter of an inch in girth in only three months. I am also a 1/4 of an inch up in length and look forward to hopefully making my short term goal of 7x5 by the 6 month mark. There was no sign of any vein or lymph vessel. I pumped one time for 10 minutes and boom there it was. I rubbed it out in a few seconds and am chalking this up to just a lymph vessel and will not worry about this spot again.

I said three months it has only been two months

Good going!

Some of us have the vein bigger than others. Is like penis size. I am proud of my vein.
