Thoughts on the Vice, and a question

Hello, aneros_xxxx.

I'm glad to read that you stopped your session when you felt some pain. It's happened to me a few times over the 6 months I've been using Aneros. Any kind of soreness or pain in the prostate region indicates a problem, which is most likely temporary. Could be, you simply overdid it.That was the case for me and it was all better 24 hours later. If the pain comes back during your next session, I strongly recommend you see a doctor since there might be some pathology. If so, the sooner it's treated, the better.

Best Regards,

Dave

I'm hoping that to prevent the pains I won't have to use another Aneros to warm me up before sticking in the Vice (it would probably make me go through lube rather fast,) but I really have no idea at this point. Has anyone had similar experiences, and how did they end up?

Yes. Link ----> http://www.aneros.com/forum/f5/how-do-you-tell-when-your-prostate-sore-15681/

Most guys here are rather "anal" and therefore are tempted to get the max that's available. I'm lucky in having arms that are long so can't line up correctly to "double insert" with finger. However when I'm just in there for play rather than a dry-O, other handy items get tempting. ....... 😀

Dave's comments and suggestions are spot-on. IMO, lay off a whole week or perhaps twice as long as it takes the pain to vanish whichever is longer. Think of this as though it were a bruise you could see. The bod has great self-healing powers. Grant it an honest shot.

Thanks for the thoughts. I have someone sleeping in my bed for the next few nights, so I'll be getting some nights off as a by-product of that... which is probably a good thing, because if there was nothing to keep me from it I probably couldn't keep from it myself. XD

I have hopes that it won't take as long as a week to heal up (I suspect it would be just fine tonight) but it's good to know that if I do get the chance in the next few days and it's still not better, it doesn't necessarily mean the Vice will always give me pain, and rather that I might just need to give myself some more time to heal.

Some updates:

Two nights ago, had two strong traditional orgasms with some help from a [human] friend. Last night, tried Vice again and while there was still some pain, it seemed a bit less than before. Tried Vice again this afternoon and even less pain.

I'm thinking the pain is actually a matter of getting used to its size, rather than any prostate soreness.

I'm planning on finally getting a lube insertion device (probably that infant medicine dropper I've heard mentioned) and maybe trying a lube other than KY, since my current tube is running low.

EDIT: After checking the other thread, thought I'd mention that I have not had any pain in the perineum.

MindTravels;

Aside from a moment of discomfort lasting less than a minute immediately after insertion, Vice use should be pain-free, period. While it may take some time, perhaps as long as a year to get intense pleasure out of the device, it should always feel comfortable in almost any body position.

I strongly suggest you not use Vice until you've had a medical exam to ensure there is nothing wrong in the rectal regions. Do tell the doc what you're doing. It's not anything he hasn't heard about before.

Sincerely,

Dave

MindTravels;

If you are looking for a lube insertion device, get a Lube Shooter or Lube Launcher; they cost less than $10 and you get three insertion cylinders with each piston. They are properly rounded and smooth at the tip, have generous sized handles, they are easy and neat to fill, and they are easy to inject. Not to mention, easy to clean. Look into it.

@tennis: If pain does not continue to decrease from session to session and if it's not totally gone within a week or so, I'll definitely consider talking to the doctor about it. However, I'm young (20) and a pretty small guy (5'8", 120 lbs.) and so it seems likely that a device of this size might give me a little trouble at first. Again, I haven't experienced any pain in the perineum or testicles, so I'm not too worried at this point. Is there any specific concern you have that I'm not aware of, or is it just general concern? I appreciate it, but I want to give it a little more time first.

@Badger: If I'm not satisfied with the infant dropper, I won't hesitate to try something else. Thanks.

MindTravel;

Glad to hear you have a plan to deal with the pain issue. There are a number of small organs in the rectal area, such as Cowpers gland, seminal vesicle, etc, that can be bruised by excess pressure, as well as the prostate itself. Also consider that any of those parts or the rectal wall itself could have a minor pathology you are not aware of that might be aggravated by the Vice. As I wrote above, the entire Aneros experience should be pain-free at all times.

Best Regards,

Dave

To my relief, the pain while using the Vice is gone.

Unfortunately, I think the thing's just slightly too long to really hit the spot for me. How do I know this? Well, it feels really great at this certain point during insertion and removal when about a centimeter or two of the device isn't fully inside. But when I let go of it, it gets sucked in past that sweet spot. It really gives an amazing feeling of fullness, and it's possible that as my muscles figure out different ways to move it'll start hitting the prostate more effectively, but right now it's not looking (read: feeling) as good as the Helix.

Very similar response here, also by about a centimeter. Helix and Eupho are my anerosgasmic partners. I do admire my Vice though for use as a fun play toy. Also the best therapy tool going -- very productive Super-Ts ! I'm 6'0" tall.
