Hi all been reading all of the adventures you gents are having using sl and ky.
I am in awe of the results you have achieved. Can I just ask a few questions to get my head around how your injecting yourself.
With ball sack is it injected the same way as if you were jut using saline ?
With cock shaft if you pump before you inject can you just inject in the bloated area of the cock
For balls, I started by injecting the same locations as I used to do with saline. Target is still far under the skin but avoiding the testicles. Equipment is different though. For saline, most folks use a bag hanging above them with a drip line and a butterfly needle that has a thin 12" line attached to it. There's about 8-10' of line between the product and the needle. Surgilube is much thicker, like regular KY lube. Because of that it won't flow on its own and needs to be pushed. Most of us doing SL use 10-20-30ml syringes with either a hypodermic needle or catheter/cannula directly attached to it. Like in plumbing, both line length, and smaller diameter lines cause flow restriction. SL can't even be pushed through just the 12" line attached to butterfly needles (I wish it could). For the first few adds I stayed with the normal saline infusion spots. As I got bigger and more uneven, I chose different injection points to try to even things out (with modest success).
For cock infusions we're trying to avoid the corpus cavernosa (part that fills with blood for an erection, and from being too close to the skin surface. It's requires pulling the skin up a lot to get the needle in a good spot. If you pump beforehand, needle placement is a bit easier in the bloated area. Just make sure to clean up any lube or lotion you may have used in the tube. I still suspect that unclean practices with SL can lead to more severe and prolonged infections vs an unclean saline infusion since this stuff sticks around longer and can block the body from getting to what it needs to fight off.
A couple other notes. A needle going through scrotum skin doesn't hurt much if at all. Not too many nerve endings in the skin there. The usual challenge is mentally getting over what you're doing. Pushing a needle through skin on the cock hurts/stings a lot more. More nerve endings for the sensation it's supposed to feel and act on. Choosing the right syringe size and needle gauges takes some experimentation for everyone. The size area of the plunger (syringe diameter) and the gauge of the needle both play a part on how hard it is to push. I use 20 or now 30ml syringes for balls with 20g catheter needles. For cock I use 10ml syringes and 22g needles (wanted the smaller gauge so the smaller syringe was necessary).
