The veins on my penis have been slightly swollen for a long time due to masturbating too hard. I was addicted so I kept going anyway. Over the past month I've started experiencing pain and the veins are larger than before... so I decided to join nofap and REALLY give my penis a break for once. My concern is, will the veins even heal at this point? I've gone 3 days and they look SLIGHTLY smaller, but how long does it take until the penis fully recovers from something like this? If at all? I'm confident I can abstain now, but has anyone else experienced this and recovered? I do hope it's not permanent
Don't worry Bro! If you're anything like rest of us here, you've been tugging your dick pretty hard for a extended period of time Just leave it alone for awhile, concentrate on the finer things in life and everything returns to normal pretty soon.
Thanks Mike. My penis is looking even better today. Could the mild pain be a sign of healing and feeling coming back? I'm confident I can go at least a month without touching.
I'm not sure how bad the damage is, but from what you've said they would heal within the month. I dealt with them as i started NoFap a couple years back. They will definitely heal.
Its not all bad. In fact, some people find visible veins on a penis to be very arousing - quite the turn on!
I still have good sensation and healthy erections, the veins just ache and are bulging out. The healing process is so slow that I couldn't go long enough without fapping, but this time I'm definitely going to go at least a month. Scared to say it, but this all started a YEAR ago . It very slowly got worse until rapidly getting worse just this past month with the veins swelling almost everywhere. It is looking a little better after 4 days now, though. Whatever damage I likely caused probably won't debilitate my sex life, but I hope the pain goes away with this abstinence.
If the pain continues several days, it's not a bad idea to show it to a doctor. I believe that you have nothing to worry about, but it's better be sure than sorry. Stay strong Bro. We'll complete that 30 day goal in no time
Well the veins don't hurt by themselves anymore (5 days nofap), only if I touch. I guess that's a good sign? The veins are also getting smaller. I'll bump this after 30 days and tell if it's healed. If the pain gets worse at any point I'll contact the doctor. To anyone else with this problem: DON'T TOUCH YOUR PENIS! Only if you need the toilet or shower. And touch gently when necessary. Veins are sensitive and you only have one penis. Something I really should've realized before.
Guys... I keep making it almost a week without fapping and then relapsing . The veins look better than before, but not as much as I had hoped. I'm barely experiencing pain anymore, only itching. But oh my god, every single time I'd be doing fine but then suddenly I get aroused and my brain thinks about how easy it is to give in at any moment. I feel so powerless and may just go to the doctor. Although I'm scared to know how bad it really is and what might have to be done... I desperately wish I could go 30 days without my penis taking over my brain so I could let it HEAL.
