    After reading some of your replies i'm beginning to gather a better picture about this. Although i'm curious to what can be termed excess stimulation? I've had a couple of episodes this week and both of them were alleviated by wet dreams but the most stimulation i can say was cuddling, making out and the occasional sexy phone call. This is nowhere near the kind of stimulation that used to get my tanks ready to blow but i guess it's change. Fapping to alleviate the pressure is a nono i guess, even though i considered it when the pain was at it's height but its not a result of bad behaviour alone.

    Vasocongestion is the proper name for what is casually referred to as blue balls. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vasocongestion | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_balls

    Vasocongestion
    is the swelling of bodily tissues caused by increased vascular blood flow and a localized increase in blood pressure. Typical causes of vasocongestion in humans includes menstruation, sexual arousal, REM sleep, strong emotions, illnesses and allergic reactions.

    Menstrual cramps are one of the most common side effects of vasocongestion in adult females. Although pain and discomfort varies among individuals, vasocongestion is an essential part of the shedding of the lining of the uterus. Abnormal vasocongestion during the menstrual cycle can lead to irregular bleeding, severe and debilitating cramps and anaemia caused by increased menstrual flow. The temporary vasocongestion of the cheeks of the face is called blushing. It may be caused by the emotions of anger or embarrassment. The illness of rosacea is a chronic vasocongestion condition of the face that primarily affects the cheeks and nose, but may include other areas such as the eyes and chin. Vasocongestion of the area around the human anus can lead to the formation of haemorrhoids.

    Vasocongestion is essential for sexual procreation in mammals since this is the force that causes the hardening of a penis during an erection. The same force leads to the hardening of the clitoris and vaginal lubrication during sexual arousal. The decrease in vasocongestion in post-menopausal women may require some women to use artificial sexual lubricant to avoid pain during sexual intercourse. Other forms of vasocongestion during human sexual activity include sex flush and the swelling of nipples in both men and women. Unpleasant side effects of sex-related vasocongestion may lead to the cramp-like pain of "blue balls" in males and an unpleasant pelvic "heaviness" in women, similar to the start of the menstruation cycle.

    Blue balls is a slang term for the condition of temporary fluid congestion (vasocongestion) in the testicles accompanied by testicular pain, caused by prolonged and unsatisfied sexual arousal in the human male... The condition is not experienced by all males.
