The Official Hard Flaccid Recovery Thread

[Newbert_zero]

Great news newbert on hearing about your improvement !
I don't think fish oil really helps as i took it before and it never really did anything ( that could just be me though )

L-Arginine i found was the only thing which helped bloodflow.

Are you getting stronger erections now ?

Ya but I have to physically touch it for it to get full. It also turtles right after an erection but other than that it seems 100 percent normal. I think Im just not used to my dick looking so small because it hasn't been worked out in a long time. It hangs normally now and the only complaint I have is reduced sensitivity and uncomfortable pain from overusing my weakened Pc and bc muscles from lack of use. I still have hard flaccid sometimes but for the most part it seems to have magically disapeared. All I did was take 70 dollars worth of supplements. Im just hoping this isn't temporary from the supplements. I never even stopped masturbating which is what confused me. I'm soooo relieved. I listed all the supplements I'm taking earlier.

hey man, yea mine has improved a lot too.. ive experienced it like 3 times now, and every time it gets better with time.

Good news! Your dick works fine, dont obsess over tiny changes, as long as you get boners, can pee, ejaculate your good, there are some guys who's dick bend sideways etc.. so count your blessings.

Good to hear it's improving but enjoy it while you can. It's going to return, but you will be more prepared in dealing with it and know what to expect. I know that ever since I started ejaculating only once a week compared to every day, mine is 90% gone. But i still think the pelvic floor does play some role in this sh*t atleast. When your body is completely relaxed, you tend to notice this less often.

So you think that once you have it it will remain dormant forever? I don't want to have to limit my ejaculations to once a week. or rely on supplements for the rest of my life. I'm also curious as how the pelvic floor could be behind all of this. I didn't jelg or stretch my pelvic floor as far as I'm aware. Btw I've noticed when I cough my dick tenses up is that normal?


I want to get back into jelging and stretching but I'm starting to think pe is bad for your dick in the long run. I think I'm just scared though and making inaccurate judgements based on bad personal experiences. I think I'm going to wait a couple weeks and see if sensitivity returns to normal and if it does I might go back into pe very very slowly. I think I will be able to take it slower and be more patient just because I'll be so glad to actually have a working dick.

Its been my experience so far that.. since i first devloped the firm flaccid, it always gets better, BUT it does seem that your more predisposed to getting it back again if you aggravate your pelvic floor/penis..

However, im still searching for the ulimate fix.. and believe I am close to it.. at the moment im getting into yoga.. going 3 days a week, trying to get super flexible in the hips and fix all muscular imbalances in my body.. then I will be seeing a pelvic floor therapist ive consulted with who is going to help me relax and regain normal function down there..

Dunno if limiting ejaculations to once a week forever is necessarry.. once my condition improved i was having sex a couple times a week with little problems.. but initially its probably a good idea..

one thing that does give me confidence is that.. although the bad firm flaccid has come back 3 times now.. it has improved every time! to the point wehre I can have basically normal function. so it makes me less afraid of developing it again.. ofcourse i will do my best not to, but i now know that its not the end of the world as I once thought.

I will continue to keep everoye updated on my progress

Hard Flaccid? Wouldn't that be an Oxymoron But seriously, never heard of it before.

 

[Newbert_zero]

I don't understand how it could be a pelvic floor problem though. I didn't jelg or stretch my pelvic floor. At least for me I don't think that's the root of my problem. I kind of think hard flaccid is more of a way of the dick reacting to different injuries so once the initial injury is healed hard flaccid will go away. We share similar symptoms but I think everyones initial injuries are different. I actually have no idea though it's just a theory I have.

 

[moxsum]

Its hard to say what the exact cause is, and it may be different for different people.

Some people get it from stretching there dicks and similar injuries, some get it from taking viagra and having vigorous sex, some get it seemingly from pelvic floor problems.

I think either way, pelvic floor problems contribute to the problem as does stress/anxiety. Its either a purely muscular thing, or some type of physiological or neurological dysfunction where the blood vessels expand/contract at innapropriate times or overly exxagerated.

Time helps, relaxation helps, living a normal life helps, warmth helps, increasing blood flow helps, taking breaks from all stimulation helps.. thats the best we can do.

Its important not to allow this issue to control your life and make you depressed. I know.. easy to say, but I have the issue too and ive learned to cope with it better over time.

Are you fighting reality? You will not win. All of our "problems" are created in our mind. It only bothers you/stresses/depresses you if you allow it to have that power.

There are people who have no arms/legs who are happy.. etc. It can always be worse. Life is all about your attitude. You have to accept reality and do the best you can, thats all anyone can do.

BTW- I woke up with a big rock hard erection today and I had bad firm flaccid just two weeks ago. So there is hope guys! What did I do? Relax, The first week I masturbated once but it was weak so I stopped for 2 weeks, and things just get better and better. Sleep well, relax, do some yoga/meditation, breathe, get outside in the sun, eat well, hang out with people, forget about it for a while and it will get better.

I believe any health problem we face is actually a wake up call from the universe.. calling our attention to something we have been neglecting. Are you healthy? Mentally, physically, emotionally? Get to work on that.

really great post moxsum..appreciate the sense of hope your giving all of us, and its good to hear your recovering Newbert..continue to fill us in on all of your breakthroughs

 

[Newbert_zero]

Make sure you guys arnt burning your dicks off. I think I actually slowed down my healing process by applying to much heat. My dick was perfectly fine and I decided to heat it up some more to see if I could heal it even more. Well after I was done I noticed my dick turtled up in response to to much heat. The next day the skin was reddish and desensitized. I think I'm done with rice socks. I've burned myself 1 to many times with them. Im going to just use a hot tub or warm bath from now on. Its alot easier to burn yourself then I once thought. Just because it doesnt hurt when you put the rice sock on doesn't mean you arnt cooking your dick. Burning your dick off certainly won't make it heal faster.

 

[fatalbazuka]

Yeah i think that goes without saying. There is a difference between using warming your unit logically to increase bloodflow, and 'burning your dick'.

Baths are the best though i think, as it relaxes all of the pelvic muscles too.

 

[Newbert_zero]

So do any of you think jelging or stretching will still be possible in the future or will it only bring back hard flaccid full force? I'm kinda reluctant to start again because I still occasionally get it after exercising or masturbating but maybe that's always happened and I just haven't noticed. I'm just glad the symptoms are letting up a little. Hope you guys recover as well.

Newbert_zero, could you please revise, what you did to more or less cure hard flaccid? Did you also abstine from masturbation, sex? Also, how long did you have it?

 

[Newbert_zero]

Fuck fuck fuck got a girl in the bed but I can't get it hard she played with it to rough and it just turtled up. This is the most embarrassing thing in the world.

 

[Newbert_zero]

I seriously can't believe this is happening I was so close to losing my virginity but I just couldn't get it up she was trying so hard and it was completely unresponsive.

Well as you can see from my last 2 posts I'm far from cured. But all I did was start taking supplements and stopped burning the fuck outta my dick. But then like 4 days ago I decided to heat up my dick again at a much lower temperature but I still burned my dick because it started muscle spasming and turtling up. and as I'm typing this there is a girl passed out drunk in my bed. I couldn't get it up at all cause I burned the nerves off of my dick.

I'm starting to think hard flaccid was just my dicks way of reacting to all the trauma I put it through.

I have no idea though.

 

[Newbert_zero]

All I know is I Could have lost my virginity last night but couldn't just cause I couldn't pop a boner. I'm so embarrassed right now cause I was all turtled up last night and she probably thinks I have a baby dick. I don't know what to say when she wakes up

Dude just get some cialis/viagra, it will do the job for the weekend.

I'm almost 100% sure this is muscular related now ( PC/BC muscles ) and here is why.

I didn't go to the gym yesterday, and last night i purposely kept the area warm and focused on relaxing the pc muscle - and for the first time ever it was 100% relaxed whilst i was lying down.
It has been pretty relaxed today too, that is until i went to the gym. I did my first pullup and purposely felt for any discomfort, and low and behold i felt a slight bit of tension by my dick - and the firm flaccid was back !
It did however relax a few minutes afterwards, this would have taken much longer back in the days of masturbating all the time.

Honestly, i think most of this problem lies in our minds, and our minds not being relaxed is causing the pelvic muscles to contract very tightly - when we are 'stressed'. The biggest clue for me, is that it feels more relaxed in the morning ( because our bodies are completely relaxed too, after sleeping ) and definitely more sensitive ( till about 5pm ). then it gets worse at, and during the night.

Another guy on thundersplace said his doctor recommended he stopped working out, and his problems improved significantly.

I want to stop training but at the same time i don't. because i love weightlifting.

Read the last 5 posts about the pelvic floor; http://www.thundersplace.org/forum/showthread.php?p=1692990#post1692990
"or the last 3 days or so I've been massaging the area between the testicles and the anus and although I end up with a hard flaccid for 20-30 minutes after, an hour or so later (basically once the hard flaccid has subsided) I can get a rock hard erection that almost hurts. One thing I've noticed in this time (from doing the massage exercises) is that I have quite a few knots in this area and it takes quite a bit of manipulation to relieve them."

It's around in the area that controls the flow of urine, because alot of times where I've got to take a piss urgently its like something attempting to pull my dick into my abdomen. But it fails to do so since I assume my dick is stronger by now, so just the tissue gets real thin and tight. In that case, I don't lose much length but girth gets thinner.

damn. In this case I will be having to take a pretty big break from the new dancing I have picked up that I love doing. Dammit
