I’m really curious as to how you have any idea what the % increase in pressure is inside your dick. I’ve pondered it before myself when it comes to manual exercises and sometimes I think it’s not really that much. Gotta realize, an erection is a mighty high pressured state of being for a cock, 145% of it may indeed create a ghoulish mess of the room. Could be wrong, not a rare event for me, happens frequently:) .
Quite sometime ago, I was toying with BH Ulis and base wrappings and it seemed to produce an immense amount of pressure inside the dick. Sure did produce alot of fluid build-up under the skin, but no real girth gains! In retrospect, I don’t think it was as much of a pressure increase as I previously thought. It’s actually pretty difficult (if not impossible) to get past a certain point unless one cuts of ALL outgoing blood, which ironically tends to cut the ingoing blood…at least for me.
Granted, the CS/glans gets fat and mighty firm, but that’s just soft tissue with a slight increase in pressure. A little bit lends to a dramatic effect. Ever hang? Maybe with a little blood in the head? The effects of ten minutes of that pressure on the glans seemed to be one hell of alot more that any clamping/Uli style endeavor carried out at the base. I couldn’t begin to guess the % increase, but even then I don’t think it was really that much.
I’m not poo-pooing your speculations/estimates here, in fact I’m rather curious myself. If priapism can damage a penis and that’s just a natural (sort of) bodily function, maybe there is some info out there as to potential pressures involved. Perhaps it is incredibly great (400%?) for those unlucky and afflicted. The relation that I’m trying to sketch here is that with as many folks clamping, uli-ing, and such, there ought to be more cases of great damage. However, there isn’t and it makes me wonder if despite the feeling and general appearance of some of these techniques, the pressure really isn’t all that high relative to what the body CAN do if it malfunctions. Remember, priapism doesn’t involve shit from Home Depot or elsewhere…it’s just the potential of the natural tissue to create a high pressure situation.
At any rate, it’s all speculative bullshit on my part here, maybe even easily contradicted by a quick web search. I think that if we can find something about the potential pressures in the penis (priapism?) in one scenario and the effects of them, perhaps it could give us a ballpark figure for what clamping results in…or doesn’t result in. Yes, we’re speaking of different mechanisms and situations which result in pressure increase, but if one can “blow a tunica” or be permanently injured by one situation and not the other, it may be safe to say the non-injury situation involves less pressure. There are other variables (time, location, etc), but it could be a start.
