Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am 28 years old. I tried using a penis pump for around 10-12 days, 15 minutes each to gain size. I used a vacuum to keep the penis enlarged. Maybe I was trying too hard, and vacuum it till it started to ache. I had no pain after thouse procedures though, ever. I was also masturbating around two to three times a day during that period (usually it was once a day).

Now, I feel my penis has grown softer instead, flaccid or erect both ways. I cannot feel hard enough to penetrate. Even if I try to masturbate, it still feels squishy, and not hard. My sex drive is also diminished. I have not had a wet dream in 10-12 days, still I do not feel high as I used to earlier without sex or masturbation for a day or two. I do not feel any kind of pain, during penetration, or otherwise. I of course have stopped both pump and masturbation. Please help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I am sorry to know that you are facing a problem with the hardness of penis following the use of penis pump to enlarge the penis size. It is foolish to believe that the penis pump enhances penis size as it is a scam rather than anything. However, we cannot correct the past and need to look for the reasons for the loosening of penile tissue.

In my opinion, there is a tear over the blood vessel or sphincter leading to leakage of blood during erection resulting in inadequate tightness. However, I must assure you that the presence of erection (although poor) and stoppage of further damage should be enough to allow the recovery of proper erection in a few weeks. At this stage, it is important to manage your stress as it is unlikely to help you in any regard. At the same time, it is recommended to get penile doppler to assess the damage at the earliest level.

I hope this helps.
