Who the hell knows what the hell this is ?

Since recently I noticed a hard sort of a ring jest beneath the corona of my head. I can especially feel it my foreskin is over my head but also without that I can feel it. It looks to hard to be a vain. Does anyone have this too or those anyone know what it is ?

Could be a vein. They will sometimes harden up when they are over-stressed. Try easing back on your routine and also massaging it out gently, using a lubricant. If it persists, stop PE for a few days. If it still persists, have a doctor check it out.

If you are talking about the “doughnut effect” that is a different issue. Search “doughnut” or “donut” here to learn about that.

Been there. It is a thrombosed vein. It will heal on its own. Back off the area for a week. Continue. If it comes back, stop for two weeks. Stretching and jelqing when too hard and too long in one session will bring this on. You overdid too early. It is important to go slow at first—about 4 months. You can lightly jelq, massage. Vitamin E is what the Dr’s will tell you to take. This area is exactly where mine and most others had the injury. I would not stop PE completely, the moderate work seems to make it heal faster. Whew, where was I when I needed this post?

Me, too.

When this happened to me I thought: What now? Varicose veins in my dick??

My location was the same as yours and JJJ’s, under-side of the head. Happens occasionally still. I just massage it out and move on, less vigorously. This first happened to me after 8 months of what I thought was careful jelking.

Hey guys,

There is an echo in here…..no, not really. I copied this thread and merged it with a thread I started in the Health/Supplement Forum asking questions about thrombosed veins. It will make it easier for the next guy to find. :) Thanks !!

Wow great reply boy’s thanks a lot. I do have a follow up do. Was really hard with you guy’s as well and did it also itch or for a lack of words tintle a little bit (like a frozen ear getting warm again.

I think I have a thrombosed vein but am not sure. Its about 1” long and runs around, as opposed to along, just under my glans. I noticed it after a normal hanging session after I unwrapped.
It is quite hard and doesen’t seem to “give” under normal squeezing. It isn’t painful and doesen’t even hurt if squeezed really hard. It has been there for around 5 months and hasn’t got any smaller or softer in that time. I haven’t done any hanging at all since it appeared but is isn’t going away !
I have been trying Aspirin, Ibuprofen etc and regularly take Omega 3 and Ginkgo Biloba but there has been no change.

Any ideas guys ?

I am also experiencing this. If I took a week of from jelqing and did only stretching would that rest it. Or is this caused by stretching and jelqing both?

Why are we bumping a thread from 2002???

The grip used during stretching might inflame the blood vessel even more: I’d think it might be wise just to take a week off, of try to avoid the area while doing light PE.

OK, I hate taking time off, but I guess I will have too.

Thanks

I don’t really know of what exercises don’t work that area. I mean, all jelqing and stretching would work that area wouldn’t it?

I also have rubbery band of tissue wrapping below my glans. I noticed that in 2005 I mentioned that I had a permanent donut, but since then it went away and again came back after extensive ADS use. I’ve taken a couple of weeks off and it’s still there, so I figure it’s there for good. I must say, it’s gotten most inflamed after vigorous PE, so this is a reminder to everyone to stay safe and smart. If you think it might be a bad idea, it is probably a bad idea! For those of you who have permanent donuts, there’s good and bad news. The good news is that the donut really isn’t going to cause much harm. The bad news is that it’s probably there for good… But I don’t suppose that’s news at all to those of you afflicted by the issue.

View pictures on my latest post. I thing I have a similar issue. Fluid retention also apparent at the TIP of my glans.

There are lymph nodes right below the glans. When doing PE they fill with fluid. It can take a few days or months to clear up. I get them occasionally from pumping and long jelq sessions. It is not a thrombosed vein. I see this mentioned all the time. It is a lymph node that fills with fluid. Heat and massage also helps.
