Buckling of right cylinder

[MK1965]

Had MRI this morning.
Just got radiologist reading of my MRI.
In inflated state (tumescence) my right cylinder is buckling at 4.7 cm from the base. Did not completely reach right crural end.. Left cylinder is normal and fully expanded While inflated.
In my experience, right cylinder is forming 1 inch long bump at 9 o’clock position. During penetrative sex, that same area hurts and also is hurting my wife.
What do you guys think of this buckling problem? Did anyone else have same problem? Is it revision on the way?

Waiting to hear from my implant surgeon.
I appreciate any response.

It sure sounds like a revision is the way to fix this.

In the meantime, is it possible to have sex partially inflated so the one cylinder does not buckle? (I should assume you have already tried to inflate just enough for sex and not too much the begin the buckling, but assuming too much is asking for misunderstanding.) I know it is not an ideal solution, but as a temporary fix... Maybe pump up to achieve penetration (even with the buckling) and then deflate enough to relieve the buckling, but leave enough inflation to allow you to stay inside your wife?

Bummer that your implant is not optimal. My sympathies to you both.

Lost,
Thanks for responding.
Yes, we can have quicky one. More thrusting, more pain for both of us.
We inflate 70% for sex usually.
I totally think, this is not something happened during the use, but rather, it was never properly installed.
Waiting to hear what my surgeon has to say and What is his solution of the problem.
I definitely prefer not to be limited with use of my implant.

Sounds like you had some sort of undiagnosed or undetected fibrosis or plaque in the crus on that side or the doctor didn't dilate enough and the tip bottomed out prematurely due to insufficient diameter of the dilation.

I agree with LS here, it looks like a revision is in the near future. I know it sucks but I really wish you luck and a quick resolution.

When I read Waynetho's thought, I had another thought to add to my previous post.

Perhaps Waynetho is correct in his observation that the rear tip is bottoming out prematurely AND the fault is not in the installation. It just might be possible (I speculate without adequate medical knowledge) that the surgeon's measurements and the installation was correct and the rear tip has moved out of position. If so, it just MIGHT be possible to manipulate the implant to move it back where it belongs WITHOUT surgery.

If you can feel around the base of your penis and your perineum and crus (perhaps in a warm bath to make things more relaxed and flexible) you might be able to palpate the parts and take observations that would be helpful to report to your surgeon (and to us here, and the manfacturer's Patient Liaison as well). Those observations might help avoid a revision surgery (in the best, most optimistic world).

Here's hoping for the best.

Look at it this way... once you have your revision, you are just gunna LOVE your implant <3

I seem to remember a member, maybe last fall. That did something similar to what you suggest. But it may of been moving the tip in his glans.
