Rash after using Redi-Stretcher

After several days in a row of using the Redi-Stretcher to hang 5lbs for 3 sets of 10 minutes I noticed the skin under the area where the pads clamp down became splotched with a red, slightly itchy rash. I’ve taken yesterday and today off, and I’ll probably have to take tomorrow off, given the rate at which it’s currently clearing up. (nevermind I’m leaving for 1-2 weeks, and won’t be able to hang anyways)

If I remember correctly, I saw a little bit of redness when I was doing 1 day on 1 day off, but it cleared up on the day off and didn’t bother me. I also notice that when I take the stretcher off it pulls on the skin rather discomfortingly (similar to sitting your bare ass on a leather chair then peeling yourself off after a while… you know you’ve done it ;) )

Maybe when I come back from vacation I should try that big rubber band wrap that comes with the thing to wrap with (sorry for that description, but I forget what it’s called). Or maybe I just need some baby powder… hmm…

Sorry to hear of this Shaggy. Sounds like your skin is not liking the rubber in the soft pads. It may be an allergic reaction, though you’d be the first, or your skin is only getting irritated from being peeled off the pads. You must use the baby powder as described on the website. If you still have trouble, the rubber band wrap/Theraband should provide protection from the irritant. If you still have trouble send it back to me and I’ll gladly refund your money.

Heh, heh, yeah I think it’s just irritated. I also didn’t read about the baby powder (or forgot that I read it, both are possible with me, :D ), but I think that’ll probably do it. I guess I’ll try that in 1-2 weeks when I’m back and at it again.

Back at ‘er again this week. This is my third time using baby powder along with the stretcher and there seems to be no problem. It also doesn’t pull at my skin when i take it off. Thanks tps!

Welcome. :)

Gee tps, you think you should add instructions, maybe even photos, explaining the use of baby powder to your site?

Sorry Shaggy. ;)

He’s not the only one. I think people don’t go back to the site for a refresher when they get it. Guess it’s just too easy to use and people don’t think directions are needed. ;) We’ve actually have added a little piece of paper into the top of the box that reminds them of the baby powder. :)

What about just adding a small sample bottle of baby powder with each stretcher?

And then there’s that. Nevermind.

I’m a cheap bastard? Thought about checking to see if they have those little travel size bottles at the drugstore, but haven’t had a chance. I also thought about pouring some into a zip-loc type bag, but didn’t want to have to explain that to the post office or the customs department. :p

HAHA :D

Now I think about it and I was kinda stupid. It’s pretty funny! HEHE :D :D :D

LMAO!!

To update: I’ve been experimenting with the amount of baby powder required, and have found that you have to be pretty liberal in order to avoid sticking to the pad. I stand over the toilet and coat my member in baby powder, and I also pour it on the pads of the device. I’ve tried it with the device alone, and the member alone but it still managed to stick although not as much.

Interesting. After about a week of regular use, I was able to stop applying additional baby powder. A different route to take instead of using baby powder is to roll one of Xeno’s HTW’s on at the beginning of your work-out and roll it off at the end. No more baby powder. I’d be happy to send you a couple HTW’s if you can’t find them in your area Shaggy.
