Hey BIB.........It's been 10 days.......

I know this is kind of a stupid question, but…..
How long can I expect to be out with this nerve thing?? I still have under average sensitivity in my head. I can’t really feel hot or cold..it just feels a little numb…….bummer….what do you think??

Man I will never let my shaft hit that damn bolt again!!

bbs,

>How long can I expect to be out with this nerve thing?? I still have under average sensitivity in my head. I can’t really feel hot or cold..it just feels a little numb…….bummer….what do you think??<

Man, I have no idea. I did not know you still had it. You really must have overdone it starting out. If you remember, I think I told you several times to back off. I am sure the bolt had something to do with it, but it can easily be an additive injury where constant bruising increased the severity, and caused a longer recovery.

I never had any problems that lasted more than a day or two. However, everyone who has had something like this has recovered with time. But you must not try to rush it. Even as the sensitivity returns, don’t even think about trying to start back. Let it heal completely, at least a week extra off after full sensitivity returns.

In the long run, with PE being a marathon, not a sprint, this will be a cheap lesson. You will not lose that much time, but will gain valuable experience from the event.

Have you used any arnica?

yea man, it’s a bummer…I want to start back up, but I know better. I’m gonna wait like you said until everything is 100 %.

Yea, it seems like there is a little sensitivity but still not much. My mind could be playing tricks on me. I guess I should have taken great care before starting PE to document everything. But, I feel it’s been definitely decreased since that “day”.

I put a cold washcloth on it and a hot one after, and really can’t feel both. But, when i put them on my shaft, I feel them both immediately.

I agree with you about this. I told you before I could even feel the nerve or nerves “buzzing” against the bolt. while my penis was inside the hanger. I would immediately detach every time I felt this, but sometimes there still would be a huge depression in the top of my shaft. It really freaked me out.

I think the repeated effect of the top of my shaft being driven into the bolt or inside of the hanger really did it to my head nerves…everything else is fine.

No Arnica yet. But will get some today…don’t really see how it well help a nerve injury though….

This shit needs to hurry up and heal, not for hanging sake, just so it can be better.

bbs,

Arnica is for bruising and swelling, and it also affects the nerves somewhat. Just try it and see. Get the high quality stuff from GNC, Arniflora.

should I lay off sex too?……..

bbs,

>should I lay off sex too?……..<

Oh hell no. Not IMO. Get an erection every chance you get. Within reason of course. Not at Albertsons or the library, etc.

BTW, if you can get a really good erection, you are not in too bad a shape. But do not push it.

Why not?? hehe

I never have that problem. IT seems like I always have one. But the head still feels a little numb….I’m thinking about starting back up this week. I think some of this might be in my “head” my brain.

Like I said, I dont know how much head sensitivity I had in my head prior to hanging….

I’m sorry that I didn’t jump into this earlier, but I didn’t log on over the weekend. I could probably write a book about nerve damage from hanging. I had 3 bouts with it. The original cause was twisting in the Bib hanger. I found a way to stop the twisting, but I got a Bib starter in addition to the regular Bib in order to keep the hanger a good distance away from the head. I now use both hangers (about 60% starter and 40% regular). The primary mistake that I made was to try and come back too soon. I eventually had to take off about 3 weeks to let it heal completely. Be careful with rough sex. My wife was jacking me off about a week after my first bout and she was a little rough, resulting in a relapse. It’s some scary shit. My dick head was really numb. Believe me, your hot and cold exercise is telling you something. I have been hanging now for 3 months with no problems and my head is quite sensitive - very good feeling. So, you are probably not better yet if you can’t determine if it’s in your head or not. Just give it time and when you are convinced that it is time to start again - give it a couple of more days.

Good luck

Thanks for jumping in. It’s definitely good to get another perspective on this thing, then talking to the same few people over and over.

1.)Was twisting your only cause of nerve damage? My dick twists as well sometimes…hoe did you correct it.

Yes, it is some scary shit, I can’t feel shit in my head. But I believe mine was from the top of my shaft making repeated contact with the top bolt and the inside of the hanger…

2.) Did you have trouble with that too?? I find it is hard to keep the top of my shaft down as BIB always recommends…

It will be two weeks this Wednesday, and still not fully recovered.

Thanks again for your input and perspective…

“I’ll be back”…….

forgot to ask…

3.) Did you ever get that actual buzzing of the nerve, indicating it was being damaged like I did or was their no indicator of damage??

4.) >”I found a way to stop the twisting, but I got a Bib starter in addition to the regular Bib in order to keep the hanger a good distance away from the head.”<

How did you stop the twisting?, maybe I can benefit from this as well…..

IT was really weird, I could literally feel the nerve buzzing in the shaft, and then when I detached the hanger, the sensation just rushed out of my head immediately…..

Also,

I think I’m going to have to lay off sex as well…
Last night, I could feel the nerve buzzing again afterward, and the head was very numb. I think the sex made it worse. No sex, no masturbation, no nothing, until this shit totally heals!! Hopefully which will be soon…I;m figuring a few weeks….

I wanted to get back to you.

>1.)Was twisting your only cause of nerve damage? My dick twists as well sometimes…hoe did you correct it.<

Yes, as far as I know, twisting was the primary cause. I solved this by wrapping first with Thera and then wrapping over that with an ace bandage.

>Yes, it is some scary shit, I can’t feel shit in my head. But I believe mine was from the top of my shaft making repeated contact with the top bolt and the inside of the hanger…
2.) Did you have trouble with that too?? I find it is hard to keep the top of my shaft down as BIB always recommends…<

No, I never had a problem with the bolt. If the bolt pressed on the dorsal nerve bundle, the hanger must have slid down over the head while you were hanging. I never had that happen, but now that I use the Starter for BTC hangs, it is nowhere near the head.

>3.) Did you ever get that actual buzzing of the nerve, indicating it was being damaged like I did or was their no indicator of damage??<

I had no buzzing. I just went home after a day of hanging at work, went to have sex witht he wife, stuck it in and felt nothing.

Give it time to heal. I am pretty sure that you will be OK after a break.
