I use a standard nylon cord, about 1/4” thick, which you can find at any hardware store. I took about a 4’ piece and tied the end together, to form a 2’ doubled length. I then pull the knotted end through the other end to form a loop, which I place around my scrotum, between my balls and my shaft, and pull snug. I then pass the cord between my legs, pulling it taught with one hand. Sometimes I wrap the cord around my forearm, so that both hands are free. I then jelq with the free hand (or hands), changing hands periodically. I do basically the same thing when I pump.
Like with anything else, you become accustomed to pulling your scrotum back; now, I can use quite a bit of force without experiencing any pain. It’s actually a nice stretch, and it does somewhat reposition things, even if only temporarily!
