pennis discolouration

I presume from your screen name, you are of Asian extraction, so how dark was your penis before whatever treatment you had?

If you engorge the penis with artificial blood enhancements, then I would think it would become more pink.

I think this a first for a question on this forum!

Best of luck.

Cheers, John.

I am of  Indian heritage.I am very fair by complexion. The  penis colour has gone darker. 

It is difficult to know  how far to push the vacuum as one needs a hard erection but not to suffer colour discolouration and other consequences.

Thanks for your input

Rup, have you had the pump demoed on yourself in clinic? It's difficult to tell if you're using it correctly.

The ring is preloaded onto the open end of the pump, and slipped off onto the penis once you've got it erect. Make sure you know how to get a ring off before putting one on - tugging on it in panic mode could do some serious harm.

Also, you aren't going to have much success with the constriction rings until you've done 2 weeks or more of training with the pump (without any constriction rings), to get penile tissues used to being expanded.

Hi there

I agree with others that the blood concentration tends to make it darker. However this hasn't lasted long after I release the vacuum and remove the ring. Do keep experimenting - I am now more than a year into using my VED and it has become much easier.

At first it was super awkward, and also quite painful at times. But with patience and experimentation it has become easier and I can fully stretch the tissues without pain. I also credit it with me having zero loss in penis size since surgery. I've written about my experiences in more detail at https://www.recoveringman.net/using-vacurect-pump-for-penile-rehabilitation/ (for rehab) and https://www.recoveringman.net/vacurect-pump-for-sexual-intercourse/ (for sexual purposes).

On the movement at the base - just want to check two things:

* Are you using a tight enough ring? I found for basic rehab I could use quite a "loose" ring but for sexual purposes I needed it to be much tighter. The ring looks so small it offends my male ego but it works 😂

* Are you doing targeted pelvic floor physiotherapy? With specialist help you can focus this on the muscles that support the base of the penis and I've found it really helps support my VED erections ... less of that "hinge effect."

Unless it is the make of pump that can't be used without a ring  

Thanks Lyn

I was not pumpIng too fast , giving 10 second before each set of pumping. there was no obvious bruising only felt tight but not hurting. 

I had three days break , the colour has remained  the same.I wonder if it is necessary to do the pumping every day or can it e done with small breaks without loosing on rehabilitation of the penis.
