Friction-related Male organ Injury - Facing the Consequences of Dry Rubbing
In
the heat of the moment – whether solo or with a partner – the only thing a man
is likely to register in terms of male organ sensation is the pleasure that the
action brings. During intimate activity, a man’s brain is tuned into one thing
only, and other sensations such as pain may be put on the back burner until the
conclusion of the matter at hand. On the other hand, inattention to details
like personal lubricants can mean that once the session is over, a guy can be
left with a throbbing, sore, red male organ as a result of excessive friction.
While
the tradeoff might not seem like such a bad thing, ongoing friction-related
injury can actually damage the delicate male skin and nerve tissue, leading to
a greater risk for infection and loss of sensitivity. And at any rate, there is
no need to suffer even in the short term for a few moments of bliss, as
exercising proper male organ care in the first place can prevent the problem
from occurring.
For
men who have already run into problems with a red male organ, soreness, burning
or itching male skin, the following steps can help to relieve the pain and
restore the damaged tissue.
Step
1. Stop the pain
The
first course of action when exposure to dry rubbing occurs is to stop the
painful sensation and soothe the burn. While it can be tempting to reach for
soothing ointments or creams, this is not always a good idea. Analgesics that
work on other parts of the body may contain ingredients that are just too
strong or too harsh for the delicate male tissue, and they may actually make
the problem worse.
Instead,
a cool compress can be applied to the area, and all-natural soothing agents
such as aloe or Shea butter may be used (although never to broken skin).
Step
2. Stop the swelling
If
any swelling is present, icing is a good option. When applying an ice pack or
frozen gel pack to the area, it should be wrapped in a towel or other soft
cloth first to prevent the possibility of frostbite. Men who are able to take
over-the-counter oral anti-inflammatory medications may use these as well. Men
who are taking other medications or who have a known health condition should
always talk to their doctor before using any over the counter painkillers or
anti-inflammatory medications.
Step
3. Seek medical attention
For
pain or injury that does not respond quickly to treatment, or if any open sores
or visible bruising is present, a visit to a qualified health care provider is
warranted. In most cases, it is unlikely that the problem is serious, but
ruptured male tissue or severe bruising can lead to bigger problems down the
road; so it is always best to get a professional opinion.
Step
4. Ongoing male organ Skin Care
To
soothe stressed male organ skin and prevent further friction-related injuries
from future encounters, two vital measures are needed. First, the skin of the
male organ should be kept well-hydrated and smooth so that it is less likely to
sustain abrasions or microscopic tissue tears related to dry penetration or
manual stroking. A specially-formulated male organ moisturizing cream (most health professionals
recommend Man 1 Man Oil) that
contains natural emollients like Shea butter, as well as nourishing vitamins
and minerals, is best for this purpose,
as a dedicated male organ cream won’t further irritate the skin. Second, a water-based lubricant
should be kept on hand at all times, as even the most eager partner can become
dry and sticky during a lengthy session. Products containing fragrances,
warming or numbing agents, or flavors should be avoided, as these can further
irritate sore male organ skin.
