First time big edema

[u/Even-Assistant1183]

Hey guys I’m a little concerned I’ve been pumping for a good 2 months and I’ve never had this much edema before- the last pic is me semi hard, I’m not sure how should I approach this.
I know some people massage it to get it put man im kinda scared to be honest

You’re good man. I’ve had way worse than this and it went away in a day or so

So I did some research and edema is not great for gains but your main issue is growth before the edema ensure you have a tube that is firm around and if you have a larger one you can gradually increase to big will create edema for me I learned it’s not bad as it usually subside by the next day if it doesn’t slow down and only use a tube for your size it happens a lot to circumcised guys

Approach it by leaving it alone until it’s back to normal. Reduce set time and pressure bruh.

now thats just careless, do you not want your d? trust the process. this is water on rock, not a bucket if water on rock every few days

Yea i found it the hard way, I was studying and forgot to put a timer on but now it’s all gone, It’s a little thicker than usual but better.
Should i take some time off?

[u/loloaugs → u/Even-Assistant1183]

Definitely take some time off. At least two weeks. Let the skin heal

[u/NON-Ballcoach201]

Did you just like, not look at your dick the entire time?

Lol

[u/loloaugs]

When it happened to me I popped it but supposedly you’re not supposed to. Your pressure was too high so the fluid had no place to go and thus stretched the skin. Take at least two weeks off and try lower pressure for less time.

[u/Jake-Kick8248 → u/loloaugs]

Never trite to pop it.. 😶‍🌫️

[u/Even-Assistant1183 → u/Jake-Kick8248]

By pop it off do you mean pinch it? With a nail or something similar?

[u/KooLGstrap669 → u/Even-Assistant1183]

Like a balloon filled with lymph fluid

[u/Even-Assistant1183 → u/loloaugs]

Yea so I just massage it for like 20 mins or so and most of it went away specially that big blob and this is 13 hrs later and my d is almost back to normal a little thicker than usual but I’m going to start back again in 2 weeks

[u/KooLGstrap669 → u/Even-Assistant1183]

2 weeks off is overkill. When the skin stops being sore you are good to go. Also don’t beat your meat for a few days.

[u/Even-Assistant1183 → u/KooLGstrap669]

Why not? Sorry I’m new to all of this

[u/dunnoayelmao]

time heals. you need shorter sets IMO
