Broken skin on glans

This is really pissing me off.

I had some abrasions on the glans from masturbating too much a few weeks ago. That’ll teach me.

Well, the abrasions had been healing, but jelqing would irritate them. I finally stopped the jelqing (basically in prep for hanging - I have NO need of girth gains at this point). I had hoped the skin abrasions would heal. Well, they *were*, with some triple antibiotic applied a few times a day.

Then I go to do my first stupidass flaccid stretch (first and LAST). I pull on the head and RIP! - there’s this nice 2mm long by 1mm wide open gash over the last abrasion area and blood wells up in the gash.

Talk about ticked off.

So I am trying to baby the damn thing. Go to bed with the thing doused with triple antibiotic to keep it softened. Of course, midnight and morning wood basically stress the shit out of it. So the healing process is ultra slow. Get up this morning and it’s bleeding again. This is going on a week now.

No PE at this point at all. And when my Theraband arrives I’ll still be waiting for this damn thing to heal, I think.

Want to ask WTF people use to heal their skin. I’ve put aloe gel on this, but I need some heavyduty stuff. This isn’t a bruise. It’s a freakin’ gash.

I have never had any thing like that happen to me so my opinion probably doesn’t mean a whole hell of a lot. What you described sounds frightening, damn, take care of yourself! I would lay off PE completely for a while until your wounds heal. PE is hard enough on your dick. Don’t do anything to compromise it. Let your body heal. Neosporin, good diet, pleny of sleep and some TLC for the willie.

Good luck.

Yeah, that is what I have to do. When I posted this I was just so fed up and disgusted. Very discouraged. Because I really want to get into my hanging routine. And like, now!

But I realize that the important thing to do is be patient and heal. It’s more important to get everything right and get/keep a good attitude, not letting impatience ruin stuff for me.

So I guess it’s the PE DL for me..

I’ve learned in doing PE that once you have a tender spot (you’ve got a lot more than a tender spot there), aggravating it again is very easy to do. Suggestion: don’t do any further PE until that gash is _completely_ healed and lay off mastubation awhile, no matter how tempted you might be. The glans is super-sensitive (it’s supposed to be) and you don’t want to end up with a numb area due to scar tissue; or worse, a wound that keeps opening and might become infected.

Neosporin sounds like the way to go - you might also like to suppliment your vitamin C intake which assists healing. Remember to keep the wound clean to minimise the chance of infection. Lay off PE/sex/masturbating as it will probably aggravate the injury and slow your progress. Also consider that, in a sexual situation, there are many viruses which could take advantage of your compromised state - a perfect entry point - don’t give them the opportunity! ;)

Well, thanks again.

The thread link didn’t work for me. Was that a thread link to Raffis’ situation? I did a search under ‘glans injury’ and came up with that thread so I read through it.

At any rate, I am backing off all things penile at this point and will just try very hard to get up a few times in the night to hit the Neosporin… drink alot before I go to bed. I need an anti-erection device!

My bad! I fixed the link above - it is to tbigur’s thread!

Take it easy!

buster,

i had a friend in the marines who decided to get circumcised, long story, however, the doc gave him smelling salts to prevent erections from breaking his stiches. needless to say, we all felt oblidged to chase him with porn. also, you might want to try salt peter, this also works well, three months in bootcamp and not one hard one amidst ninety young swinging dicks.

If you have been following my nonsense you’ll know that i have a thrombosed vein which i have almost got rid of. It would have been gone already but i decided to get in some marathon sex over the weekend (just couldn’t resist, i’m weak!).

So anyway i reckon another few days to a week and i’ll be back at it.

The point is - you’ll be back before you know it and i know how annoying not being able to do anything is. I’m in your corner.

Right on, Holmes!

It’s looking much better. By the end of the weekend I think it’ll be healed, and then I am giving it more time after that to insure the strength of the skin. It’s such fragile stuff (even on circumsized guys).

I had the vein thing the first time I started up. Went away after a few days of off-PE. I find that rest takes care of most things, even stuff we freak out about. The issue is often times *not* will rest heal my penis, but *will* I let my body rest, so as to heal.

This is a great lesson of patience I am learning. I’m feeling pretty good!
