Thrombosed vein

[dyslexic_smile]

Well, the other day I was doing my routine and decided to do a couple more erect bends than usual. Needless to say, during one of them, a wiggly vein popped up prominently. Apparently I managed to get a thrombosed vein.

Ever since the vein showed itself initially, I have done a few PE sessions without any problems. However, I think it's probably in the vein's best interest if I take at least a week break from PE to help it fix itself.

I heard that doing hot wraps and using taking aspirin will help get rid of the thrombosis. Does anyone have any advice other than this?

Oh yeah, for the record, the vein doesn't hurt at all, but it is in an enlarged state regardless of whether I am flaccid or erect (although it gets even bigger when erect). The enlarged part of the vein is probably about 1.5 inches long in total, with a varying thickness. Within the first 1.25" or so it is about 1/8" in diameter. After this, it reaches a point that I call "the clump." Basically there seems to be a clump where the vein increases size, probably to about 3/16" in diameter for about 1/4" in length. After the clump, the vein returns to the size that it should be.

So yes, I'm fairly sure it's thrombosed, and decided that PE will always be there, so I should take care of this problem first.

Thanks for any suggestions on means of getting the vein back to normal.

DS, hot wraps are very good I would also advise you to do some deep massage to the injured area. Taking time off is going to be necessary but you will heal quicker this way and come back stronger. Another thing you can do is take regular aspirin as this will help thin the blood. Essentially a thrombosed vein is a blood clot...nothing to get too worried about and in about a week to two you should be back to normal.

DLD, thanks for the advice. I'll be sure to give that all a try. I bet by the tme this is all healed up, I'll be missing PE quite a bit. I'm already starting to get the shakes from the withdrawal symptoms. :) Alright, I was just kidding around there, but seriously, I look forward to the day when I can jump right back into my PE routine. So hopefully just before the end of the month I'll be all ready to go.

The most important thing to do when you are taking time off from pe is to stay inviolved with your groups. Keeping connected with your friends will help you get right back into it when the time is right.

Yep, I will surely still hang around the forum here. Will probably actually cause me to give more input than usual, due to the fact that I'll have a bit more free time in my day.

Oh yeah, and DLD, do you sleep? Seems no matter when I make a post, you reply in a timely fashion. Maybe I'll have to try posting at a really obscure hour and see if you still reply then, haha.

what exactly is a thrombosed vein... theres one huge vein on one side of my penis with a lump on it almost the size of my pinkie fingernail..not sure when it got there but its been there a few years, doesn't hurt or anything. PE doesnt seem to be makin it any bigger or smaller. So are thrombosed veins something to be worried about(if this is one) or is it bc they just arent appealing to look at??
