Discolouration - My story, need help

In my experience discolouration comes about from not warming up properly, because a few years back I tried a ‘cool-down’ instead of a warm-up for a while and I got bad discolouration. However another time it was even worse discolouration but I was warming up, though I think I over-did the intensity of the routine. I think it’s something to do with tearing the internal skin, somehow bruising it. Therefore warming up would help to keep the skin more pliable.

All my discolouration is gone now, even though it was severely bad before. It didn’t take that much time to go at all really, a few weeks. It does make you stop and think whether PE is worth it though, when you get nasty big dark patches over your dick.

Is this really safe? Seriously?

Yeah, battle scars is right!

Any Info on this one? If anyone has had success in using these products, how did they do it?

Thanks!

For straight up discoloration- evenly dispersed “staining” anywhere between the glans and the base- I’d start with Vitamin K cream nightly for at least two months.

For anything resembling a burst vein (i.e. varicosity) I would use the walnut tincture. Any health foods store will have this. Simply apply 2-3 times a day to the affected area.

As far as the vitamin E oil or the flax oil- these can also be procured at any health food store and can be applied whenever your routine/lifestyle allows. These cannot hurt and can only increase the pliability/skin health of your penis and could possibly help with gains if used faithfully over several months….IN MY OPINION.

Anyway, there’s that.

Wantsmore,

Do you think applying vitamin k cream would help prevent discoloration before it happens?

I think that only managing the warmup, time, and intensity of your workouts can really keep the discoloration from happening. However, prophylactic use of Vitamin K cream certainly wouldn’t hurt and could actually “cure” the discoloration by fending it off at a faster rate than it’s accrueing.

My main discolouration problem is a small patch (roughly 1cm X 1cm) on my shaft. It’s quite noticeably darker than the rest of my shaft. Would it be best to use the vitamin K cream on this area alone for a while, until it clears up (hopefully) and then start using it on the whole of my dick? Or would the walnut tincture work for that? Or is there anything stronger that would be ideal for targeting specific areas of discolouration?

I want to clear up this discolouration but ideally wouldn’t want to evenly lighten my shaft because the discolouration would still be just as noticeable.

I hate to say this grOx, but if Vitamin K cream, applied selectively to the discolored area, didn’t do the trick I might actually give some of the methods that hobby&Co. have experimented with here to see if I could get the patch evened out to the same hue as the rest of the shaft.

Their method seems to especially work well in instances where you need to selectively target a given area. See what you think. Although dipping my whole unit in this stuff many times seems VERY unappealing and possibly unhealthy, using this method for the kind of thing that you’re detailing is probably something I’d try if I couldn’t find a solution with something like the Vitamin K cream.

Just remember too that with the Vitamin K cream it works over a couple months at least and unless you paint it on PERFECTLY, over time you may be likely to just make that spot look even weirder. Whereas, with the hobby&Co. method, the chances of you being able to really target the area seem highly improved.

Keep us posted if you decide to try something.

Let’s have a look at the forum guidelines, Mindframemind. I’ll give you a hint: it means making more of an attempt at correct spelling, capitalization and punctuation.

Thanks.

Well I havnt actually tried out the vitamin K cream yet but agree that trying to use it on a specific area would probably just make it look more strange. Going over the edge of the patch, over time, would probably make it end up looking like some kind of target.

I have actually read up quite a bit on the “shedding the snake” thread and find it very interesting. But I think I can wait until my discolouration gets quite a bit worse before attempting something like that. At least it’s good to know that theres a decent backup plan if our discolouration gets really bad.

Hopefully the vitamin K cream will affect the discoloured areas more than the normal skin, evening it out. But any lightening will be an improvement. I am going to get some of this stuff as soon as possible so ill keep you posted if I get any progress.

Has anyone else had any success with the vitamin K cream?

Does anybody know if it’s alright to apply vitamin K Cream under the foreskin? I’m uncut and concerned about getting discolouration around the glans. Could vitamin K Cream cause an irritation on the penis head?

Sorry brah, I’m cut. Maybe posting the question here will get you someone with some experience in the matter.

Vitamin K is used to clear up bruising from damage to the capillaries. I doubt it would irritate the skin on the penis unless you had a specific sensitivity. It’s often in ‘Under the Eye’ creams, which is some of the most sensitive skin we possess and the cream bases tend to be extremely mild and hypo-allergenic.

I’d suggest Arnica gel if your discoloration is from temporary, generalized bruising, as I suspect it would have broader benefits for your penile circulation overall. I don’t think a Vitamin K treatment would be bad, but I think it tends to help with more superficial capillary damage.

With regard to Tretinoin and Hydroquinone.

Tretinoin is basically pharmaceutical vitamin A and it can be a little intense. I’m sure you know that it is used for the treatment of severe acne. The less intense little cousin, Retinol Palmitate or Retinol, is probably more than sufficient to provide the Vitamin A your dick needs, but I’m not sure why it would need it. Unless you get pimples on your dick. It’s skin lightening properties are not great and probably misplaced in such an application.

Hydroquinone is in many over the counter skin lightening creams and is probably safe enough - again, variable sensitivities, your mileage may vary. It’s more for age spots or evening out discolored pigment in the skin; i.e. skin that is discolored for reasons other than bruising.

As to putting creams under your foreskin. Depends on how much and how often. Occasional applications will probably be fine, but I think the worry is having too much moisture and possibly developing yeast, fungus and the resultant skin rashes form same.

I don’t know if that is helpful to anyone, but there it is.
