    Hi, just had to cut my cage time short (1 day only) due to an irritation on the same spot on every lock up. I am still unsure what may be the problem so this time I took a photo, hopefully someone could tell me how to prevent it and go for long term lock up.

    I went up with a slightly larger ring, I probably go with wide oval just to give more space to the side. Hopefully giving enough space for easier maintenance.

    I do get an occasional raw skin issue. I'll generally put a band-aide over it with some Neosporin. Not sure if you are self locking or not, but if you are I would just stop wearing it when you get an issue until it is healed.

    I agree, give it a break and let it heal. Maybe then try a new device?

    Not had that issue thankfully. Keep at it.
