Tit repair advice

[Guest backbaygayguy]

Any hints from experienced guys about how to "repair" nipples after a workout? Just spent three days with Dave (Rockin') from DC (assisted one night by Mick NY) -- lots of tit work, and then more.

 

My nipples can take a lot -- but now they are a bit rough and sort of crusty (not sure how to describe it, but I'm sure experienced guys know what I mean). I usually use aloe vera lotion to help after a session, but I wonder if I should be using something more. (The last morning, one tit was raw enough that we stayed away from it to prevent any trace or ooze of blood.) No pain or discharge from either nipple, and actually not really sore -- just checking on what others do to get theirs back to normal after heavy workouts.

Tiger balm -

 

If that doesnt work neosporin

Hydrocortisone 1 percent

Actually part of the pleasure is having your nips continue to sing for a few days (in fact mine are singing as am typing this) so I usually don't do much...

 

However, all kidding aside try Hydrocortisone 1% which can be purchased in ointment form over the counter in any drug or department store. Cleanse and dry the area and apply 3-4 times a day. A little bit can go along way in reducing inflammation and hence relieve any type of irritation...

When to use Hydrocortisone?

 

I've wondered when it's appropriate to use an anti-inflamtory and when not ...

 

The reason for not using one is that the redness is due to increased blood flow, which might

be helpful in the healing process.

 

On the other hand, when I had my first instance of lower-back problems, the doctor said

to use iboprofen *to reduce swelling* and lessen the likelihood of nerve damage due to them

getting pinched.

 

I'm not a doctor... any comments from anybody who is, or at least studied biology or medicine?

And part of the pain/pleasure is being aroused and hard with the memories and jerking off but not being able to touch my nipples that much because I want them to heal. BTW, if escorts ever got residuals for my replays of their sessions, I would be broke! I realized a while ago that I no longer buy much porn, doesn't satisfy as much as my memories do.

Thanks to Wetnwildbear and Whipped for the suggestions of Neosporin and hydrocortisone -- I guess I should keep them in my travel kit. Haven't liked tiger balm in the past so am not using it today.

 

Honcho, I do keep ibuprofen in my travel kit, for those unexpected sore muscles or joints, from certain activities LOL. But I never thought of it for a surface skin abrasion -- I think the blood flow is a good thing so I haven't used that today.

Disclaimer: I am not an MD but have some knowledge of the mechanisms involved.

 

NSAIDS (non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) such as ibuprofen and naprosin (Aleve) are different from Hydrocortisone ointment which is a mild corticosteroid and indicated for topical use as opposed to the stronger and more dangerous steroids that need to be utilized in a cautious manner often under strict medical supervision.

 

In a nutshell NSAIDS are often the drug of choice for inflammation such as musculoskelatal pain (lower back pain and arthritis), tooth ache, head ache, etc. Reduced inflammation technically equals reduced pain. The mechanism is due to the blockage of cox-1 nd cox-2 enzymes which block prostaglandin production. The inflamed tissue releases chemicals called prostaglandins, which cause swelling. So less prostaglandin production means less pain...
