Went back to my original size base ring this morning after weekly shave/scrub routine. Bought a new ring one size smaller when we had my MM Jailbird shortened last spring. Although I can wear the new smaller ring and for the most part it might eventually be OK for now it just hurts too much and makes me a little paranoid. My balls get real angry in the morning especially. Even with good lube the bits swell just a little too much to feel comfortable with. Better safe than sorry I guess. I'll try it again occasionally since we paid for it anyway. Have a great day.
And? Any updates? Did you get used to a tighter ring? This is something that I am curious to discuss as well. For a while, I was wearing a 50mm ring (ht v3 the nub knockoff) and realized it was too loose. Then I switched to a 45mm ring and while it seemed to be snug (not tight), things would get a bit swollen. I am keeping the swelling under control with squats (morning right after I wake up and evening before bed) so no more complains with swelling pains. But, I recently noticed that i can escape the jail so I am going to try the 40mm ring for a bit. I put it on briefly and it was tight (as in no way to escape anywhere!). Since I am going to be out and about this afternoon, I switched back to the 45mm. Anyways, any input will be much appreciated lads.
same here! I opted for a smaller ring when Ohara a new cage, to begin it was perfect, no device migration, evert it just stayed in place, but after a week I had terrible burning balls, and not every pulling them down stopped it, after I was allowed to remove the device I had a Huge friction burn where it had trapped my balls. I ordered a larger ring ASAP and it solved the problem.
