I realized I had erosion when the tips of the implant became a lot more easy to feel when touching my glans. Pain is often also a symptom but for me only my left side hurt even though both sides had significant erosion.
The length of my erection is about the same after switching to 24cm cylinders. The surgeon added tissue to the glans, so that compensated for the the shorter 24cm cylinders.
Everyone should measure and keep track of where their tips are. They can eroid distal, your urethra, and laterally.
By easier to touch, you mean as in they were getting closer to the very end of your penis? or you mean as in they were in the same position but your glans tissue was thinner? I am trying to picture what the symptoms look like in case it ever happens
First you notice the tips are farther into your glans. Like originally they were half way lets say and then you notice they are now 3/4 the way into the glans. The further they are into the glans the thinner the tissue becomes. At some point you will be able to feel the tips just by gently rubbing the tip of your finger on your glans. You will feel the tips even if your glans are engorged because of how much erosion has happened.
The surgeon says he’s even seen guys whose tips burst through his glan skin. He said that the guy came in a month prior to discuss a revision because of the erosion and by the time the surgery came around the tips had now burst through his skin. The surgeon told me once you notice erosion you need to stop using the implant until you have a revision to fix the erosion.
By the way, which doctor fixed the erosion? and would you recommend him? How is your recovery after your last surgery? did they do exactly the same as the first time you had erosion? And did they downsize again?
