Base hair it's the problem?

I’m more less new into PE. During my jelq routine, I felt a little discomfort and ignored (wrong, I will always stop and check now). When I finished, there was some wounds( like little red dots) on the base of my penis. I presume it’s cause I have some hair on the base and when I jelq, I pull that hair and hurt my penis. Maybe a week waiting to heal. Any of you guys had a similar problem or can you tell me if it’s not the hair or recommend something? This is my first topic, apologizes me if have anything wrong if it. I really want to take PE seriously (I’m very dissatisfied with my size, around 4’ ) but I know I have to keep it safe.

I just started PE a few weeks ago and have had the same issue. I was yanking the hairs at the base of my penis while jelqing causing irritation and little red bumps. I trimmed the hair way down, have been applying lotion, and haven’t had the issue since. Don’t give up, it will heal quickly. If you want, take a couple of days rest, but no more. The longer you are away from your routine, the less likely you’ll continue.

You forgot to mention if you’re doing it dry or wet, maybe it’s better to do it wet in your case and always keep your pubic hair trimmed

I do wet jelqs.

Trim the hairs. Also makes it more aesthetically pleasing IMO

Ty guys, I will trim it regularly, and get back to the routine as soon as possible.

Trim the pubic area and I prefer shaving the shaft and sack. I know there is some concern about ingrown hairs but I use the wives shaving cream and never had any issues.

Good luck!

Wow I once tried to use shaving cream on my sack and it actually burned my skin in there!

Use female shaving cream, leaves everything nice and soft/slick.
I never use my shaving cream down there.
