Are cock rings safe? It’s a fair question — and one that anyone who’s considering using a cock ring should ask. For the most part, there is nothing to worry about. But there are a few instructions you should follow. So, let’s get started so that you can get down to business.
The Right Size
Just like anything that ‘cums’ in different sizes, you need to make sure to choose one that fits. That’s especially true when it’s a cock ring, something that squeezes your junk tight and keeps it hard. While you should always aim for a tight fit, please make sure that it’s not too tight. Because if the cock ring doesn’t fit properly, it can irritate the base of your penis and make it go numb. So, if you are a beginner, go for an adjustable or stretchy silicone ring that’s easier to adjust to your size.
Timing Is Everything
Remove a cock ring after 20 minutes. This is important. But, since we know how some guys can be, let us reiterate this vital piece of advice that you shouldn’t ignore: remove the cock ring after 20 minutes. If you leave a cock ring on for too long, you run the risk of some real injury to your baby maker. If you begin to experience any numbness, pain, or skin changing color, take it off right away. But try not to get to that point because it can result in cell damage, which can be permanent.
Keep It Short
Nope, we’re not referring to your dick or foreplay! We’re talking about your pubic hair, which you should keep short. Why? Well, you don’t want any unwanted pain from a cock ring pulling the hair from your nether regions, do you? That’s why it’s an excellent idea to shave or trim your pubes before putting on your cock ring. Never miss a manscaping appointment. Trust us. Plus, trimming your pubes can help make your dick look larger, helping with more confidence.
Ample Lubrication
Just like any sex toy, you should have some lubrication on hand — and your cock and cock ring! Before you lube up, check that you’re using a lube that’s not going to damage your cock ring, or condoms if you’re using protection. The same goes for any other toys you might be playing in the bedroom. If the lube is compatible, use a couple of drops around the inner ring to help guide the cock ring down your shaft. That’ll stop any pinching or tearing of your package.
Like many things we enjoy in life, some dangers could arise from using a cock ring, but only if you abuse it. Be smart, and don’t disregard any of these tips to get hard.
