    I am desensitized because of dry fapping and death grip, so I don't feel a darn thing during sex with my girlfriend. I'm going on 14 days without orgasm and 16 days without porn, so I'm getting hard all the time which has resulted in painful and swollen balls three of the last 4 days.

    Do I need to release it?
    Can the pressure damage the pipes? I'm considering breaking my streak just to stop the pain.

    I can't seem to do a search on the mobile version of the forums, hence the new thread.

    Nevermind. I found the search function tucked away in the drop-down menu.

    Dude, try the ice pack method. Put an ice pack atop your scrotum/balls with your cloth underwear as a barrier. It will deliver a slow, cool, penetrating, relieving numbing that will quench the fire/swelling in your balls and directly affect the thoughts you are thinking, diminishing them and eliminating them even, giving you relief.

    I actually differentiate between a cold shower and the ice pack method. With the shower, one gets agitated and tense and worked up by the cold, most of the water is hitting the body and not so much the scrotum anyway, and having one's junk out and swinging wildly all over the place is a recipe for arousal as well. None of this happens with the ice experience as I described it in my post: rather, the ice pack method produces an experience that is restful and calming (not exciting lust), within a controlled small area (not the entire epidermis), the organs are away and secure within one's underwear (not swinging or being touched in a shower or stimulated in anyway), and the cold is slow and soothing and comforting (not bracing, eye-popping, and blood curdling as in showers - all recipes for excitement). Ice pack method is also useful when trying to sleep at night - you can't bring a cold shower to bed, and the shock of the cold shower can keep you awake (like caffeine), with the temptations only building up again -- keeping you up all night. With ice pack, you sleep like a baby.

    The cold shower is indeed useful for other purposes - like building stamina for enduring discomfort, thus translating into building one's stamina and tolerance of discomfort and pain in many other areas of life. However, this latter goal was not the purpose of my post. My purpose for the ice pack is to numb temptation, to quell the lusty heat in the groin (and blue balls even), and calming the wildly heated thoughts in the brain. Even when one thinks it's all in the head and not the balls, it's amazing how the ice-pack treatment on the groin area still drives out the lusty thoughts and temptations that exhaust one's willpower into a PMO downfall. Although, for some guys, a cold shower can indeed benefit this way depending how they employ the shower and how it suits their own physiology.

  4. Make sure you are controlling your thoughts also. There is a balancing that your body is going to go through. Not saying you are but if you are thinking about sex all the time that will compound the problem.

    Actually you can also dangle your conkers in a cup of cold water. The pain is bearable and temporary. I advise that you stick to the recommendation in your username. ;)

    Gentlemen, thank you all so much for the timely replies. I wasn't too familiar with that kind of pain, so I was a little freaked out and ready to relieve myself.
    The good news is that I didn't crack. I sucked it up while at work, and the pain went away 3 hours later. When it happens again I'll grab a cup of extra cold water or a cold compress.

    So thanks again, I'll add one more day to my nofap streak!
