My Penis Injury - Should I Stop PE?

Six weeks ago I went to get a P-Shot from a urologist. He did an examination of my penis prior to the injection and mentioned that there was some hardness right below the glans. I didn’t think anything of it until a week later when I noticed that my penis head was twisted to the left when I put it in the penis pump.

I called the urologist and went back a week later to see what the problem was. He said that the penis twist was likely due to the hardness that he mentioned before I had the P Shot. I pressed my penis in this spot and couldn’t feel any hardness. He said that he feels penises all day long and that’s how he can tell.
He cautioned me against doing any more PE for fear of making things worse. He said that he can always tell when one of his patients has been jelqing because of the scar tissue in the ultrasound.

He prescribed Pentoxifylline, a drug that takes at least 3 months to take effect. He said that it could break down the plaque and make it more malleable.

I left his office feeling pretty dejected. I have only been doing PE since June, and very little of it. I started in June going in the Bathmate flaccid for a few weeks until I started going erect, doing 3 sets of five minutes. One time, in a fit of body dismorphia, I got erect and went in the pump for the first time erect, wanting to see the expansion and what my dick could look like if I succeeded with PE. Afterwards I had a rash like effect of red dots all over my penis.

I had read that the red dots go away after a day, so I think I took the next day off and then continued with pumping. However, the red dots hadn’t disappeared, so maybe I injured myself and then exacerbated the injury by continuing to pump.

I never would have known that I had an injury had I not seen the urologist that day. I didn’t have any pain or any other symptoms. Of course, this penis twist made me see that there was something wrong going on. Fortunately, the twist doesn’t really have much impact on anything with regards to erections and sex. The head just points northwest and that’s it. I’ve sort of just gotten used to it.

For the past month I’ve been doing some sporadic pumping and just recently started soft clamping with 7-8 shields. I’ve spent the summer getting really excited about PE because I didn’t know I could improve my penis until June of this year. The idea that I might have to stop doing it is something I cannot accept. Unlike a lot of people here, I am not trying to get a vanity dick. I’m trying to solve a problem. My 4.5” girth has been a problem my whole life and it felt so good to learn that I could change that. I also don’t think I did anything all that crazy to get this injury, but I guess I did do something, or else it wouldn’t have happened.

I’d love to hear some reactions from the experienced guys on this forum. For the time being, I’ve decided to go AMA and proceed with my routine of soft clamping and pumping. Maybe in a few months I’ll pay to get an ultrasound to see how the injury is doing. Or else, see the urologist again and then re-evaluate. One idea would be to stop for a few months and let the penis heal properly. I considered that for a while but my urge to PE and fix my dick took over. I’ve spent the whole summer learning about PE and preparing to start clamping and pumping until this happened. It just felt unnatural to stop.

I’m a newbie, 1 year in. I have suffered 2 minor injuries, thankfully recovered quickly. You are a newbie, 2 months in. I’m not a vet but I’m gonna say you need to slow down. I didn’t start clamping till the 8 month mark. I’m sure the vets will say the same. It’s a marathon, not a sprint. Good luck!

Don’t do any pumping or clamping. Especially clamping. Trust me, if you’re even the slightest bit injured your penis won’t be in a state where healthy gains are achievable. The only thing that is possible is further damage.

I’ve suffered two different occurances of nerve damage. One time from clamping too soon in my career. Clamping is phenomenal for girth gains but not worth the risk until fully conditioned. I started out at 4 in. MEG and had gained a 1/4 from pumping and jelqing, took a decon break. Got back to it and started clamping too soon. I worked my way up and was clamping more and more often. It worked wonderful at times as I was exiting the clamp at 4 5/8 EG. I was stoked. Until I injured myself. I lost all feeling in my upper shaft and glans and lost all of my gains from my second round, leaving me at 4 1/4”. Not being able to maintain erection during sex was pretty discouraging. I had to take a whole year off before I could even stretch and lightly jelq.

This light stretching and jelqing was going ok but again, I started to increase the intensity too quickly and one night jelqing while intoxicated, I caused nerve damage a second time because I continued to jelq after I became erect. Too much compression on the dorsal nerve while erect…

I obsessed about my size and knew I could change it but my obsession hindered my judgement. Twice. Lucky for me, more than a year later, I have full feeling in my penis again and it still gets hard but I have learned my lesson. Now I only do manuals and I’m back up to 4 3/8”.

Everyone here will say its a marathon not a sprint

Take a break. In the meantime, Try not to obsess about you penis size and don’t look at your girth as a problem. Don’t let that idea slow you down or hold you back from having a rewarding sex life. Be happy your dick works

hey man, can you talk more about your injury? I jelqed erect in December around 9 months ago and haven’t been the same since. Did you have cold glans, erectile dysfunction? What did you do to heal? Did you masturbate at all? Any supplements?

You got some big balls getting back into PE after having nerve damage. Not only once but twice. Achilles nuts like you should be golden plated and diamond studded.

I regret clamping and jelqing. I wish I had gone straight to pumping and light weight hanging.

Gaining girth is ridiculously easy with light pumping in my experience. 20 minutes at 5 inHg every other day seems to produce consistent gradual gains.

Sigmoid, you pump and hang only? No jelqs?
