Pumped implant hitting edge of VED cylinder

Postby aussiePeyronies » Wed Sep 13, 2023 4:45 am

I have been using the VED, as per Dr Hakky's advice, unfortunately, the device seems to inflate to the left and it hits the left edge of the cylinder. I am using the XL cylinder which is girthier than the C cylinder.

Do you guys see this as an issue? I usually pump to maybe 3g pressure, would like to get to 5-7 but my left side of my glans would hit the edge of the cylinder.

Appreciate any thoughts/advice.

I cannot use my VED because of the location of the pump. I cannot get a good vacuum seal. The pump body is that high. I could grind away a bit of the base of the VED cylinder, I suppose. I would have to be very careful not to remove too much material and make sure I polished the ground-down surface to very smooth. Or use a foam rubber donut or ring to prevent abrasion of my skin.

Sounds like you need a cylinder with more girth. You can find a quality pump online.

IMHO,
Not an issue. as long as you get a good seal and are able to maintain the vacuum.
BTW, mine also touches the side of the cylinder and it's been that way for 4 years.

vitality medical makes flat round rings that go against your pucbic are to create a seal better used it on my pump works great makes it harder for the boys to be sucked into the tube ..
