While some people enjoy pain with their pleasure, nobody’s
likely eager to incur an unintended injury while getting it on. Certain
precautions should be taken against common lovemaking-related injuries. It may
seem like only more adventurous moves would require care, but some of the
common causes of injury take place during the most “vanilla” of escapades. So,
in the interest of maintaining proper male
organ care and attending to the
well-being of his partner, a man should be aware of the following injuries and
take steps to prevent them.
1)
Female Organ Tearing: Some women’s skin is more susceptible to
tearing than others. If a couple is having sensual activity for a long time,
and/or if the activity is rough, a female partner is very likely to experience
some degree of female organ tearing.
While a couple might not be able to
avoid this completely, they can take steps to limit the tearing that occurs.
The very first thing to do is to make sure a woman is amply lubricated. This
may be natural, product-assisted or a combination of both, depending on how
much natural lubrication a woman produces when turned on. Men can also ease her
open with a finger or two to start, and take care to enter slowly when it’s
time for penetration, thrusting gently at first. Finally, a couple should
perform lube checks every time they change positions, adding more product if
needed.
2)
Manhood Chafing: As with female organ tearing, it may be
hard to prevent any sort of chafing from rough or prolonged sensual activity.
Like women, guys benefit from ample lubrication. If they are wearing a barrier,
they can squeeze a bit of lube into the tip to protect the head against
friction. They can also benefit from using a moisturizer on the male organ
daily to keep the skin healthy and supple.
3)
Posterior Injury: According to a 2009 study conducted at
the University of Alabama School of Public Health, visits to the emergency room
attributed to sensual toy injuries have doubled since 1995. Researchers found
that 74% involved a vibrator, 78% occurred to the read end and 83% involved
“foreign body removal.” From this, one can conclude that a whole bunch of
people got a sensual toy stuck in their behinds.
Now, surely that’s not a common injury.
But it’s best avoided, as is the more common tearing that can occur from
posterior play. Lube is the key here, as well as not using a toy that is
massive, at least if a man or woman is a beginner to back-door adventures.
4)
Nerve Damage: For the couple interested in role play,
it’s of the utmost importance to make sure restraints aren’t too tight. A
person should be able to slip two fingers between the rope or other material
and the person’s skin.
On top of that, the untied partner
should do “feel tests” every few minutes. Make sure the partner’s circulation
or nerve supply is not being cut off by pressing an area below the restraints
(for example, the hands if the wrists are bound) to verify that he or she can
feel it. Also, look out for any discoloration.
Fortunately, preventing these types of
injuries is not difficult. Investing in a good lube is key, and men may want to
try a male organ health crème (health
professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil) for moisturizing their members,
protecting themselves against chafing and friction. It’s best to go with a
product made for the male organ in order to avoid irritating the sensitive skin
with chemical ingredients or fragrances. Using sensual toys wisely is another
important preventive measure, as is practicing caution when getting into role
play. With these steps in mind, men and their partners can make sure that any
pain they may experience is associated with pleasure, not injury.
