Rash, Skin Peeling?? Advice.....?

[MrAvgSC]

Ok so I am on month 6 (using manual jelqs and stretching approx 20min per session... plus regular air pump device for approx 30-45min per session) and showing some decent progress +1/4" length and +1/4" girth...oh and started out 5.8+/- and 5.25+/- (sorry never been a detailed measuring guy....but I can say for the first time in recent memory I have been getting compliments....) so I am motivated to keep going. The last few weeks I think the girth thing was really taking off even though I am naturally fairly girthy hell I was begining to impress myself.....(is it posssible to reach max girth and the skin just says ...sorry stop can't expand anymore?)
Here is the problem I need help with....for the past 2-3 weeks I have had to stop all PE work because of a rash(?) or skin peeling on my penis.....I can't touch it for a week it takes to shed all the old skin....but once I start back (especially the pump) I obviously have bruising but then I get the redness which eventually evolves into dryness and then peeling so I wind up taking another week off.

Here is my plan....switch the routine.....jelqing seems ok even though it does provoke the redness blotchy appearance.....but get rid of the old pump (it's pretty old...I do clean it...but anything is possible I guess).....get a Bib Hanger and Bathmate and add those things to the routine. Less pumping more hanging same jelqing....maybe this would lead to less irritation. Or is this something more serious....that I need to see a Doc about....I must admit after the skin peels I do have a fresh shiny smooth new looking penis ....but I don't want to stop PE. Advice?

Okay Mr. AvgSC , Advice . Do you use a lube to jelq with ? What kind ? What Hg. do you pump to ?
I think you may be pumping at too long at a time . Try several 20 minute sessions , and make sure you lube well if you fill the tube . Try something with Vitamin E or some other skin soothing ingredient .
We don't want you out of commission .
Let me know how you're doing , and I'll help you if I can .
mael out !!!

Thanks MS.....well was using whatever cheap aloe type lotion was on sale.....was afraid of the alcohol content so recently switched to Olay firming reviver body lotion "plumps skin cells with moisture leaving the skin wall stronger and visibly firmer" so they say...but mostly natural ingredients and low alochol content.....but the iriatation started with the previous lotion as well....so don't think it is the new stuff....amen....don't want to be out of commission either....did have a bout of jock itch during this period as well and had to go with the tinacin spray for a week (live in the South near the beach so heat and humidity this time of year keeps the goods fairly moist all day )...thanks for any help you guys can offer....

I've been using EVO, Essential Vein Oil and so far so good.

"skin just says ...sorry stop can't expand anymore?"
he skin is the easiest part of your anatomy to stretch. Blood vessels don't have much trouble following since those are fairly flexible too. Nerves can be a little crunchy--if you get weird tingly feelings along with growth, that can be minor nerve damage (which easily heals)

Really, your tunica and ligaments are the hardest things to modify (with the tunica being the more difficult of the two).

As long as you Kegel, your erections should be able to grow with your new size.

You mentioned a Bib hanger. I've been using one since 2008, and I'm very happy with it. If you have not purchased one yet, I recommend the bib starter. It's easier to use and get the settings right for. Even if you did exceed the minimums for the standard bib hanger, I would still recommend the starter because its easier to use.

I'm still thinking you're putting too much time under pressure and that's what's making your pecker peel .
Does the head and shaft get overly red ?
I don't think jock itch would have anything to do with skin on your penis peeling .
That's why I'm focusing on the pumping .
You can tell if your jelqing too hard .
Your PI's would be way off and morning wood unavailable .
mael out !!!

Hey I actually tried to add this update last week...but it doesn't show up...humm...used quick reply...not sure why it isn't here but I will update again...
Basically through self diagnosis....google...webMD I figured out I had a yeast infection and began treating with Monistat....I surmise I didn't keep the old pump clean enough and everytime I got over the symtpoms (I thought) and went back to it I re-infected myself. The lesson here is keep all the tools of the PE trade as clean and dry as possible and be prepared to throw away and buy new at some point. I have trhown out the old pump and ordered a Bath Mate....which I will try to keep clean and dry as possible. I have been on the Monistat cream for 6 days and the symptoms are way way better just a hint of a red spot and very little peeling...another day or so then switch to hydrocortizone for a few days and I assume I will be back in action.

The upside is when I went to Walmart to buy the monistat I discovered they are selling Bio-Oil now.....about $11.50 or so....will be going back to get some once I am done healing up.....I have read some good stuff about it and hope it will aid in healing and enhancing the PE regimen.
Thanks for all the input and help!

On Cleaning Our PE Equipment
That's funny, I just cleaned all my stuff about a week ago. I am thinking I should clean everything this time around though, even my weights... just in-case!

I'll see what kind of organic cleaners my wife has (she's big on the health stuff).

Your best bet would be to use a proven, non-irritating lube like Vaseline or KY Jelly. It would also be a good idea to follow up any PE sessions with a light rub down using cocoa butter or some other skin rejuvenating substance to ensure that your skin stays supple and healthy. Cocoa butter may also prevent or soften up stretchmarks- a common symptom among fast gainers.

Hello everybody,

First post on here and very old topic, but I feel this is worth resurrecting since I have exactly the same problems as the original poster and I think other could as well.

Basically been Peeing manually on and off for three years, never had an issue as the one I will describe. Begun with bathmate 2 months ago regularly. Had to stop bathmate and peeing all together one month ago because of the exact same symptoms than OP.

Candidiasis on both armpit and on the head of my penis. At first I thought it was because of using a not that clean towel I had to use for a while, having recently moved to another country for a new job. Candidiasis can develop in humid and not so clean environment, so I figure it had developed on the towel and by drying myself I had caught it in armpits and genitals.

Went to the doctor, gave me a cream to apply and that was it, candidasis is pretty easy to treat. However, I use the bathmate in my pe routine a few days after that and the candidiasis came back in one day on penis.

So, there is several possibilities here:
1 - The towel was the cause of candidiasis and maybe it developed in the bathmate by contact with the penis (I hope fucking note, given the price of the tool). Hence catching it again after contact with bathmate.
2 - The towel was the cause of the candidiasis, it is not present in the bathmate, but the arch effect of the bathmate could have led to candidiasis gaining back some power on my penis, maybe it was weakened after the cream treatement. In that case I would just need to let the penis heal and rest for awhile and I will be able to use the bathmate without problem later on.
3 - The bathmate was the cause of the candidiasis all along (badly dried one day ... ? But it seems strange as it is plastic. I have had some trouble finding if candidiasis can develop and survive on a piece of plastic...), contaminated the towel and extended to armpits while drying.

I must admit that the only way to verify that would be to let all heal and use the bathmate to see if candiasis comes back afte that. In that case, I would have certified that my bathmate is contaminated You imagine how that annoys me to try a suicide mission do discover that.

In the end, I hope this is option 2 and I will still be able to use my expensive bathmate without any issue. I tried to wash it toroughly today and properly dried, I can see some traces in the tubes, like if something had not dried... looks like something is going on in the tube...

Is there anybody that has been in that case and that could advice?

Many thanks to all!

Try Man 1 Oil that stuff is magic for your penis. I had a similar problem months ago before I started PE. I masturbated too hard and too much and damaged my skin to that point - minus the rash. I lost sensitivity too in my skin and head area. I went to the urologist and he recommended that I use coconut oil during masturbation and obviously use a flashlight and not my hand or anything with a tight grip. He also recommended me that Man 1 Oil and I been using it for two months since. It healed my skin and made it really soft and help restore my sensitivity in it as well.

Hello everybody...

You meant to quote MrAvgSC.

I have two suggestions. I’ve used both. I had this problem as well. Redness, kinda itchy, skin peeling and cracking. Was gross. Got tested and no STD.

Try these two. The first one worked amazingly for me.

1.) Gold Bond multi-symptom psorioasis relief cream, 3 % salicylic acid and 7 intensive moisturizers.

2.) Aquaphor healing ointment Advanced Therapy for dry, cracked, irritated skin.
