Red spots after pumping?

[AtYourCervix10]

hey gang, I have a pump that i love to use, but after I use it, I always get these red blotches. I assume they are bursting capillaries, which can't be good. They go away, in a day or two, but I don't want to give up my pumping. Also, I really wish i could pump before dates without getting these blotches, you know? otherwise, the girls are asking about red spots. Which obviously isn't good...

I know the obvious advice is not to pump with so much pressure, but if i use light pressure, It feels like it's barely doing anything.

any tips? pointers? anyone else have this problem? any hacks around it? Maybe take a hot shower before I pump to dilate blood vessels? i dunno...

I actually came across this myself recently. I found that I wasn’t incorporating enough stretching with pumping. I started jelqing right after I use my bathmate, and not only have I stopped seeing the spots, but I feel a major change in erection quality as well. In a very good way. I’m not sure of the why behind it, but I hope this helps!

i have the same problem, man. i find that i get them if i push the pressure a little too much, or the length of time i'm in the tube. recently, i've been exclusively wet pumping and the spots seem to be a lot better.

Back the pressure down some when you pump and use plenty of lube this may help to not get the red blotching. Lower pressure over a longer time will give the same results as high pressure over a short time. Try these tips and see if it helps control the blotching.

thank you!!!

Pump with hot water, also try pumping while wearing a condom. either will help you get less damage, and more natural looking result.

Red spots are gonna get ya sometimes, but you can minimize by incorporating the tips you already know: warm up, stretch, lube, build up slow, not too hard, not too long... blah blah

The thing to focus on here is that you are causing trauma. Either it’s too much for you, or your not fully prepped, which mean the same thing, effectively. The problem is that controlled, borderline trauma is actually the goal, what gives the temporary gains, and possibly what leads to long term gains

In my opinion, you have to warm up and take your time with the session before trying to achieve good expansion. I also think, the more you pump the better you can handle it

Definitely stretch, jelque, stimulate, and erect your d before and during. I like to not hold the pressure for a long time either, especially if it’s high. I let it off and pump it back up often. I peak at high pressures then bleed off to medium and then hold there for a few. Massage/jelq after ward too

I have stopped pumping mostly. I do manual, squeeze-type exercises and “clamping” to get temporary and long term gains. I pump sometimes for blood flow and fun, but I like the results of the other exercises before sex and or as a health routine

At beginning i used my bathmate for 1x 15-20min, and i also have red spots and a donut under the head.

Now i use it 3x 7min, between these sesions i do 5min jelqing.
No red spots, no donut.

OP, you'd be right that the red sports are burst blood vessels. and as many have stated, either use less pressure, less time, or include breaks in your session.

also, it sounds like many here use the bathmate, I do have one, but don't use it so much. i prefer the regular pump with a pressure gauge, that i use without taking a hot shower. I would guess using the bath mate in a hot shower probably also reduces chances of spotting.

But yeah, I appreciate everybody's advice, i will definitely try to make some adjustments. I do love that engorged pumped feeling though after a solid 10 minute, high pressure pump. It's just I'm unable to do that without getting the blotching soon after.

I cut my pressure in half today. seemed to avoid marks. will see how this goes...

Side note, I just started drinking hibiscus tea. I read it dilates blood vessels and helps cardio. seemed to help me get a much stronger erection too.

I had them pretty bad from overpumping/over time with my Bathmate and took a few weeks off. They went away and I'm taking my time and not using so much pressure.
