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!

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

Thanks guys-I'll try your advice.

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.

Interesting that there is a difference like that between the two pumps, Alibaba. Thanks for posting it. So few here have tried both.
