Maintaining Penis Sensitivity After Vigorous Sexual Activity
December 20, 2019Let’s be honest: The idea of having a quite active sex life is one that most men aspire to. But what happens when penis sensitivity suffers thanks to all that hot activity? It’s a problem for many men, who often find that their penis can become sore, irritated, or even calloused over time. Little abrasions can add up to a big problem with penis skin that just isn’t as sensitive as it used to be, and thus, a sex life that doesn’t pack the same powerful punch it once did.
The good news is that there are ways to maintain penis health and avoid the penis chafing that can happen with a regular, active sex life.
- Use plenty of lube. Though it might seem like a no-brainer, many couples will enjoy sex without the use of extra lube, even though they might need it. While the female body can produce enough natural lubrication to help both partners fully enjoy the experience, a couple having sex multiple times a day might find that the natural lubrication just isn’t enough. A bit of high-quality lube can keep the sensation high while avoiding any sort of penis chafing.
- Clean up after the fun. While it might be quite tempting to simply go to sleep after the deed is done, many men find that when they do this, they wake up to a quite irritated penis. That’s because the bodily fluids that might have touched the penis - as well as the spermicide from condoms or the added lubrication - could dry on the skin, leading to chafing, redness or even a slight rash. Take the time to head to the bathroom and at least wash the penis with a warm, moist towel before tucking in for the night.
- Moisturize like crazy. A good moisturizer used right after a shower and anytime after washing the penis is a great idea. Look for one that contains ingredients known to promote penis health, such as vitamin A to fight bacteria, vitamin D to reduce inflammation, and vitamin C, which can help aid the body in healing small cuts or scrapes. Most of all, those with penis chafing should look for a crème including L-arginine, a natural amino acid powerhouse known for helping the body heal from wounds.
Ease Penis Chafing and Promote Healthy Penis Skin
When pursuing a healthy penis, always look to moisturizing, lubrication, and regular cleansing as a surefire way to get on the right track. And remember, when washing the penis, use a mild cleanser - preferably one that is specially formulated for use on the penis, or at least for use on very sensitive skin.
With that said, it’s important to carefully look for signs that penis chafing has become something more serious. This includes a rash, abrasions that won’t heal, any areas of redness or heat that won’t go away, and bruises or other discolorations. These issues could mean that the penis has been damaged in a more serious way than the typical rawness sometimes associated with penis chafing.
And when it comes to choosing a high-quality penis health creme (health professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil, which has been clinically proven safe and mild for skin) , look for something with the above-mentioned ingredients. Also look for something with vitamin E and Shea butter, two powerful ingredients well-known for soothing the skin, protecting it from damage, and helping it heal from issues already present. Remember to apply the crème especially after a shower or cleansing, but don’t hesitate to apply it at other times as well, such as when chafing and itching begin to show the first signs of being a problem.
