Penile vacuum therapy, commonly referred to as “pumping,” is a method that involves using a device to create a vacuum around the penis, drawing blood into the organ and resulting in an erection. While effective for various purposes, including treating erectile dysfunction and enhancing size, it’s crucial to use the device safely to prevent potential injuries.
1. Choose the Right Type of Pump
Different types of penis pumps exist, such as air pumps and hydropumps. While air pumps use air to create the vacuum, they can sometimes cause the penis to bend, bruise, or blister. On the other hand, hydropumps use water, providing a safer experience as the warm water acts as a cushion during the pumping process.
2. Don’t Overpump
While it’s tempting to see immediate extreme outcomes, it’s essential to be patient and aim for long-term results. For pumps with gauges, it’s recommended the first session be at 3-5 mm Hg maximum. Overpumping can lead to issues like a donut effect, blisters on the glans, petechiae, or other skin injuries, which can delay progress.

3. Protect the Testicles
Sometimes, the pump can inadvertently suck in the testes. Using a ball stretcher can help prevent this from happening.
4. Safety First
Ensure that the pump you’re using is of high quality. Counterfeit or low-quality pumps can lead to poor results and potential injuries. Always read the manufacturer’s instructions before use, ensure you have the correct size of the pump, and avoid using it under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
5. Be Aware of Skin Changes
Monitor your skin for any changes. If you notice bruising, redness, or blistering, stop using the pump. Small red dots indicate bleeding under the skin, and any numbness, discomfort, or pain is a sign of ceasing usage.

JELQ2GROW’s Jelqing Balm is designed to help men reconnect with their intimate parts and provide proper care for the delicate skin of the penis. The balm contains Shea Butter, Beeswax, and Tea Tree Oil, offering numerous skincare benefits:
– Moisturizing: Shea Butter’s fatty acid content provides hydration, locking in moisture and reducing the risk of dryness.
– Smoothness: Enhanced hydration improves skin recovery, leading to softer and healthier-looking skin.
– Nutritive: The balm is rich in vitamins A, E, and F, promoting strong antioxidant activity and protecting skin cells.
– Healing & Repair: Shea butter and Beeswax help reduce the appearance of stretch marks and scarring.
– Anti-inflammatory: Tea Tree Oil, with its high concentration of terpinen-4-ol, along with Shea butter, reduces inflammation.
Using the Jelqing Balm post-pumping can prevent injuries, boost recovery in case of irritation, and enhance the overall jelqing experience.
Penis Pumping: Maintenance for Long-Term Results
If you suddenly interrupt your training, pumping results won’t stick forever, a maintenance routine will help sustain the gains. Consider pumping every 7-10 days or twice a week. If you stop all forms of training, some of your gains might regress, but not all.
By adhering to these safety tips and incorporating quality products like JELQ2GROW’s Jelqing Balm, you can ensure a safe and effective pumping session. Always prioritize your health and well-being, and consult with a healthcare professional if you have any concerns.
