Yeah, I think that's a really good idea. I'm not all that put off by the bleeding itself (although I found it to be substantially more than I would have liked), it's just that you can't sound anywhere else but the washroom (unless you want blood all over the furniture). It's not the most comfortable and sexy place to be sounding.

I think part of the problem was that I was so eager to sound that day, and really increased the sizes within minutes. I'll try it again with the new Dittel sounds I got (...I spent the morning boiling them and cleaning the carrying case they came in). There seemed to be a hazy coating on the sounds when I boiled them, but I was able to get them back to a nice shine with a lot of 90% rubbing alcohol. It was so tempting to start sounding with them, but I put them back in the case, to await another day when I'm not feeling so "blah".
I wonder if there's any extra chance of infection if the stricture open up with the sound in there, and if it can get into my bloodstream? I don't want to come off as a worry-wart but I just need to be extra careful. I certainly won't be going as gung-ho like I did the last time. This is obviously something that needs to be taken at a snail's pace.The tissue will also start to heal even in that short a time. Just be sure that there is plenty of lube so you will be able to remove it.
I'm not sure how big those other sounds I've ordered are going to be, and whether they'll be a problem to insert. No doubt, I'll be posting pictures here once I get 'em in there!
So you've tried this in order to help with your stricture? Personally, it might be my imagination, but I'm already seeing improvements in my urine stream. To hell with prescription drugs and their damn side-effects. This is way more fun and helpful!That is the original reason I bought and starting using them. Then I found out how good it feels.
I just about go nuts when any probe gets near or into my bladder! Wow... to me, nothing beats that feeling. Well, maybe a blowjob from Beyonce, but that's about it.
