I was implanted 1/19/19. About a month ago I noticed the bulb gets stuck sometimes and requires a lot of pressure to get it to depress. Any similar experiences and is this considered a defective device?
Thanks!

Re: Bulb Gets Stuck
I'd probably recommend you see your doctor. I've had the valve stick many times, but I just have to mash the deflate button, sometimes trying to pump a little fluid in before hand. I haven't had the bulb be super hard since I broke it in.
I hope it clears up, but my doctor said replacing the pump was a pretty easy thing to do.
Good luck.

Mine was that way at the very start, hard as a rock! The Dr. said to press the release valve and pump it at the same time, I haven't had a problem with it since.
Hope this helps, Andy

Not been an issue with my Titan but this happened all the time with the LGX pump. Trying to deflate more would set it free. I don't know if that reset the valve or the fluid lubricated it though saline would be hard to consider a lubricant. Cheers.
LGX 21cm .Milam 01/13/16. Horror; both service and surgical outcome. hated infrapubic installation. Kramer revision 03/01/17. 22cm Titan +1.5cm extender. Those who think their opinion is the only one that matters are a danger to themselves and others.
Re: Bulb Gets Stuck
Interesting that there is a difference like that between the two pumps, Alibaba. Thanks for posting it. So few here have tried both.
