In many ways, self-pleasuring is good for a man’s health; it relieves stress, gets him in touch with what he likes and brings a dose of pleasure to his day. Sometimes, though, frequent or rough handling can leave a man with a sore male organ. While following certain male organ care steps, like using lubricant and avoiding a tight grip, can help prevent soreness, a man is bound to feel some tenderness in the region now and then.
It’s generally a good idea to give the member a rest when it is sore, but sometimes the urge to self-gratify is hard to resist. There are a few methods men can employ to protect their sensitive male organs while still satisfying their desires.
When the head is sore
For many men, the head of the male organ is the most sensitive part. This leaves it susceptible to becoming overly sensitive – particularly if a man has rubbed it vigorously or gone commando, exposing it to the friction of his trousers.
A man with a sore manhood head, along with the urge to self-pleasure, can take this as an opportunity to try out some new styles. Consider the following:
• Base Focus: Some men focus so much on the sensitive head when self-pleasuring that they never find out what potential for pleasure lies at the other end. A man can try concentrating on the base of his male organ, varying rhythm and grip tightness. He might also want to get the sack involved – gentle strokes, light taps and/or soft squeezing can amplify his pleasure.
• Ring Fingers: Make a circle with the thumb and index finger of the right hand around the base of the male organ; slide the ring upward just to the base of the head, then follow along with the other hand’s ring and index fingers. Continue alternating until release.
When the shaft is sore
Sometimes, the shaft may have borne the brunt of chafing from previous partner or self-pleasuring sessions, leaving the head as fair game. In that case, men can try these inventive head-focused self-pleasuring methods:
• Palm Rub: Lube up the palm of one hand, then rub it against the head of the male organ until release.
• Tip Tapping: Once fully hard, gently tap the head of the male organ with the fingertips. This method may take some time to bring about the big finish, but the suspense, along with the unique sensation, may make the extra time well worth it.
Additional tips
Using more lubricant while self-pleasuring is a good idea for both preventing and managing soreness. While friction from a dry hand may feel great in the moment, it might not feel so hot afterward.
If men are chronically sore from their solo routines, they might want to ask themselves whether their grip is too tight. If a man can’t experience pleasure without a super-tight grip, he may have de-sensitized his male organ to subtler sensations. This could pose a risk to his performance while with an actual partner. Taking a break from self-pleasuring, then retraining oneself to respond to gentler methods, can help. If a man is unable to achieve this on his own, a sensual therapist could be of great value.
A final step men can take to prevent and recover from a sore male organ is to use a quality male organ health crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil). Equipped with Shea butter and vitamin E, Man1 Man Oil moisturizes the skin, keeping it smooth, soft and resilient to friction. Applying the product daily can make a big difference in overall skin condition and the time it takes a man to recover from his last hand session. In addition to using lubricant and avoiding a stranglehold on the member, this crème will help maintain manhood health and enable a man to be ready to go for his next trip to Pleasuretown.
