Ball Burn...How Tight is Right?

[hotrob99]

Hi there. I'm using a CB3000 and fairly new to this. As I wrote in one of the other forum topics, I've recently had some amazing time with my KH. She is really getting the hang of squeezing and playing with my balls. There is this incredible balance between pain and pleasure when my cock is trying to get hard. But I guess I'm wondering if everything is fitting properly. Last night, the intensity was almost overwhelming. Can any of you share with me the degree of ball pain and burning when your caged cock is trying to get hard? I attached a picture...I don't think my balls or scrotum are much larger or smaller than most guys, but I'm curious if I'm experiencing the device as intended. I do think I am seeing a slight amount of stretching of my scrotum...seems like my balls hang a little lower when I've been caged for a while and am finally released.

Just looking for some input. When is tight and burning TOO much of a good thing?

Thanks in advance!!

Nope. It is upside down.

Looks like a pretty good fit. If it only burns when you are attempting an erection I would try increasing the spacer a little bit. Also, a little (very little) lube around the ring can help. Recently I have taken to using a little cetaphil hand lotion before bed.

When I started with the CB3k, I discovered that only the smallest ring was small enough to prevent escape (without resorting to cutting the lock off). Unfortunately, I'm a 'grower' and while my flaccid size may seem teeny-tiny, full erection is something rather different (not bragging, I think I'm only about average (6"), it just looks so very small and insignificant when not erect). Also, my erections are *very* strong. I only managed to last 3 days (and nights) before sleep deprivation and the intense, constant pain drove me to beg for removal.

I moved to a larger ring, in fact the next to largest (volume slightly reduced due to mending the broken hinge with JB Weld) and experience no pain at all now using a fairly thin spacer. Since I found it possible to escape from any except the smallest if I worked at it, I saw no reason to tolerate any pain at all since it would be rather pointless- tolerating pain would not improve function.

Also unfortunately, I cut the guide pins before it occurred to me to test if smaller rings and larger spacers would make any difference. I suspect it might since one of the problem areas is the foolish rivet used in the hinge- one side is rather sharp and no matter whether it is facing front or back at some point it gets to hurting quite a bit.

I doubt that even with thicker spacers I would be able to use the smallest ring, since it would still cause severe bruising, and erection with such a constriction causes its own sort of pain in the testicles (for an interesting experiment, try placing a ring or strap in that location that is tight and restricted when flaccid, have your KH cuff your hands behind your back and then stimulate you to erection...and keep stimulating. See how long you can last until you will agree to do just about anything to get her to stop).

'Ball burn' is the sensation of scrotal skin under friction and can be alleviated by lube.

'Ball pain' (not the hammer) is down to the increase of pressure below the ring caused by constriction of swelling tissue - this can feel incredibly painful but is only a real problem if the ring is too tight to allow this to subside when stimulation has ceased.

As you 'bed in' your device your tolerance for both will change (or you will develop a preferred solution to them) and in time you may find that you can manage a tighter ring which is often more comfortable overall.

Great advice, guys. I knew there would be some helpful insight.

It's true that when I'm not erect (or trying to be), there is no major pain or discomfort. I went down from biggest ring to next smallest a while back. I am on the middle sized spacer. So, based on Poor's comments, it's the pain I'm talking about...not burning proper. I was mainly wanting a process check with other more experienced CB wearers. I don't think it's doing lasting damage at all...I believe it to be part of the process and part of the discouragement of erections that we all probably crave on some level.

My cock grows quite a bit too and the surge from blood flow is more powerful than I thought it would be. But that may be partly due to the fact that wearing the device has increased my drive a bit anyway.

A fiction story I read described it quite well...the pressure of your balls rising into the ring as the skin tightens and your cock tries to expand. It's a huge turn on and my lady has begun to recognize and enjoy its effects too. At first, she was so sweet and loving that she didn't want to hurt me at all...she's figuring out the good from the bad pain (as am I).


Thanks again.

I am wearing a CB3000, (had a 2000 and didn’t get on with it at all). I too have the same sensation with the burning balls. Actually its not burning balls its pain caused by the tightening / pulling of scrotum skin and it is actually the nerves in the skin that burn.

I tend to find that when I first put the device on I have to ware it for 10 minutes to get the burn, readjust then repeat before the padlock is closed so that the scrotum skin stretches a bit and calms down. Then once positioned correctly I hardly notice that I am wearing it.

When I first started (many years ago) I used to lubricate the scrotum to solve the problem however in reality if you plan to ware your device for any period of time you get very messy and start to feel like you are continually greasing up. I would suggest patients and find your comfort spot then you’re away.

The times that I normally get the pain are:-
1. First put on (scrotum to tight)
2. Very cold conditions (when the scrotum is very tight)
3. When erect for any period of time (scrotum skin stretched)

The erect discomfort I have always felt it part of the whole chastity experience as you have to train your brain to calm down your horny thoughts or experience the pain. An interesting concept when performing oral sex.

As a side note if you are planning on wearing the CB3000 for more then 5 days at a time I recommend using the same size solid ring from the CB2000 range as this gets ride of the hinge in the middle of the ring that start to rub on the scrotum after a while. I like you are on the number 2 ring (second largest) and have both the solid and the hinge. Unfortunately you will need to use different spacers as the sizing will be a different fit so you might need (as I have) a 2nd cage to go with the solid ring.

Hope this helps

I bought the DickCage device last week. I initialy got the 45mm ring. It was not too hard to get on. I had it on for about 2 hours to start with. It was very comfortable and no pain, however my balls we a dark blue like it was cutting off blood flow. So I ordered the larger size 50mm ring. That one was just as comfortable as the first. But I still have some discoloration, not as back as the smaller ring. But I am worried it might do damage over time. Is this normal to have discoloration with no pain? Balls are warm to the touch, so that lets me know it is getting some blood flow. So any advice.... should I just push through the color and continue???

Absolutely not! Any blueish color or numbness to the scrotum is not good and can cause injury due to insufficient blood flow to the area. Keep trying larger base rings until you find one that you can wear without getting blueballs. It's the right distance between the bottom of the cage and the bottom of the base ring that grips the scrotum just right and makes for a secure and comfortable fit, not an ultra tight base ring or a snug cage.

It's the right distance between the bottom of the cage and the bottom of the base ring that grips the scrotum just right and makes for a secure and comfortable fit, not an ultra tight base ring or a snug cage.

I think this measurement is as important as the size of the base ring and the size of the cage. If the gap is too wide the cage will slip down or the balls may escape. If it's too small the cage will be too uncomfortable to wear.

For those starting with a CB6000 the gap between the cage and the base ring is a measurement they definitely need to take before ordering a custom device.
