Discoloration from clamping, goes away? Yes

Hi all, I haven’t posted here in months but thought I would pass along an update.
I discontinued PE more than 6 months ago. I gained significantly during the 3+ years that I did PE and am very happy with the gains.
I almost made my goal of 7x6 … but that’s not why I’m posting here today.

One of the last PE routines I was doing was clamping for increased girth. I gained 1/8 to 1/4” girth that I attribute to the clamping.
But one downside is that the skin was discolored above the clamp on my penis. The top 4-5” of penis skin was significantly darker, and a bit splotchy, compared to the base area.
The discoloration was persistent… so even 6 months after I stopped clamping it was still significantly darker above the clamp line.
I am happy to report that eventually the discoloration faded completely and I can no longer see any color difference from base to glans.

Ofcourse it goes away after a while, this is nothing new.

That’s good to hear. Half of my dick (from head to midshaft) has grown noticeably darker than the other half. I’m assuming your gains have remained after the discoloration faded?

When I was hanging I had bad discoloration, it took about six months to a year to disappear all together.

Wait, I thought discoloration from clamping is permanent (other than minor reduction after ceasing the clamping). Such as explained in the “shedding the snake” thread started by Hobby.

I’m concerned about this because the discoloration I’ve been getting by clamping has gotten bad enough to where I’ve stopped clamping (and I haven’t reached my goal yet).

There are different kinds of discoloration. Some goes away relatively quickly (say after taking a few weeks to months off), and some doesn’t.

Propensity toward developing the long-lasting kind seems to vary considerably.

My discoloration never went away and it has been years since I PE’d.

How often do you clamp and how long are the sets?

Luckily I haven’t had any noticeable change in color.

I’m not discounting the concern about discoloration but why not look at discoloration as a plus.
Kind of a character uniqueness. You could become known as the guy with the Pinto Prick. :rolling:

I mean guys who are colored have all brown, black or dark tan shafts and glans. Caucasian guys are all white. But how many guys have multi-colors?

It’s like a rainbow slide. Try to make it to the bottom. LOL

I believe this has been covered before somewhere, but for me, I found discoloration to wane very sharply when I did an extended wrap with an ace bandage, keeping the penis semi-erect. I may have left mine on too long, for a brief period I would go to sleep with the wrap on and the tightness wasn’t so precise, so I’d wake up in the middle of the night sometimes feeling very uncomfortable and with an engorged, dark penis. Scary, and probably ill-advised by all accounts, but after a few of these extended wraps, my discoloration was all but gone until I started clamping again.

There are older accounts of wrapping (mild constriction for longish time) to remove discoloration. It worked for some. I don’t know what they considered discoloration.

For those of us who developed the deep blackish colored staining that I think is hemosiderin deposition, wrapping won’t fix it. Chemical peeling will.
