swelling

When you say swelling up, do you mean your veins or the whole thing? At the moment it kind of sounds like a blood flow restriction by the rings being too tight?

 

Hey bigben,

The swelling you describe is probably a light case of oedema, which is basically fluid retention in the spaces between your cells. There's a pretty good article on it here.

It's pretty much not a problem in the short term, but it's something you want to keep an eye on if you're planning to go to longer terms.

 

This is a problem that I also get with the CB 6000 but "If" I am allowed to remove it and replace it with the Curve this it clears up an a few minutes in my case it is definately restricted flow due to the small tube size. As I am now in what seems like a long term situation (One Month tomorrow) I am loking at alternative devices as the Curve is too loose and my good lady will not use the full metal belt that we have as she does not like it.

 

I think that your ring is too small and restricting blood flow. Try the next size up or you could file or shave the inside diameter of the ring you now use to make it just a wee bit larger

 

An old topic I know but thought I wold ressurect rather than start again. I am suffering the same problem, the link didn't work but I intend to looking into oedema on Wikipedia (font of all knowledge). My device is if anything slightly to large, it is a jailbird and the swelling occurs between the bars. I think this is because I was erect of semi erect for about 12 - 16 hours and it was pushing against his cage.

I am really just after some advice, generally too small a cage, too large a cage to long (time) having a hard on? My Mistress has kindly let me out for a couple of hours for it to go down, but this is something I would like to nail otherwise it will interfere somewhat ...

 

Glad to hear all's well
