A small problem.

[d00dguy]

Well, I had been jelqing for about 10 days before I noticed this, and then took a week off to see if it went away, no luck, so I need some advice.

After jelqing for a week (started slow, 75 reps of three second jelqs for the first 4 days, 100 the next 3, 125 the next 3) I noticed a little dip in the right side of my penis, almost like it had fallen in, or the rest of it had swollen out. If I do a few ulis around that area, it'll swell out to "normal" but then recedes back to the shape previously described.

So, the questions: Have I done any damage to my penis, or did this area just not develop? Should I keep jelqing, or should I have a doctor check this out?

Oh yeah, if you didn't already know, I'm a newb.

This is a new one. How is the problem now?
Just an idea but it might be your grip, do you change hands or use the same one?

It sounds like the onset of "Peyronies" complications, from personal experiance. I would seek a second opinion
Best of luck! I hope I'm wrong.

I doubt that very much after a week of PE, unless there was a problem there in the first place. It sounds like a reaction to the jelqing technique used.

I was thinking about this at work today and have a few more questions:

1. is it painful when touched or when pressure i applied?
2. Is the skin sore in the area?
3. Is the swollen area soft or hard to the touch?

Let me relieve your concern. I too have experienced the dent on the side of my penis. Yes, it is directly related to your method of jelqing. You may need to do some corrective work - starting a jelq at the base of your penis and going down to just before reaching the dent. As you have seen already, this will help fill-in the dent. Then, after you have corrected the problem (dent) you need to work on correcting your methods. Begin your jelq as close to your body as possible and use an equal pressure all the way down the penis. Changing hands and changing direction of penis (up, left, right, straight) to get equal pressure on different parts of penis will help. And, despite your desire to apply heavy pressure while doing your jelq routine, don't. A moderate amount of presssure, especially for a while, would be better. This should take care of the problem.

There you have it d00d, your second opinion!

I'm sorry if I upset you with my fatalistic point of view. I'm just a little bit paranoid on this subject.

About a year ago I awakened, after a night of vigorous sex, to find a small dent in the side of my penis, just behind the head. Causing the head to point to the left at about a 45 degree angle.

Can you see where my viewpoint is coming from?

I'm just eight weeks into this program, so it's a little premature to say if this will work or not.

I don't know if the curve will come out, but the whole thing is sure a lot larger.
