What Every Man Needs to Know About Blue Balls

March 27, 2018

There has been some debate over the years about blue balls, the strange phenomenon that afflicts men who get excited but don’t get off in a timely fashion. As penis problems go, this is one that can cause heated debate. On one side of the coin, there are those who claim that blue balls has a detrimental effect on penis health, and that it should be avoided at all costs. On the flip-side, there are those who dismiss the condition as being just another way for a guy to pressure a partner into going further than they had perhaps intended. So who’s right in this scenario?

What is blue balls?

Blue balls is the colloquial term for vasocongestion in the pelvic region. Does that sound like a frightening penis problem? It’s actually pretty simple. As a man gets aroused, more blood rushes to the penis and surrounding tissue. This strong rush of blood is what allows a man to get and maintain an erection. The vessels leading to the penis get a little larger, allowing more blood through, while the vessels leading away become a bit smaller, keeping more blood where it’s needed.

When a man ejaculates, hormones are released that trigger the body to reverse the process. The blood trapped in the area begins to drain away and a man’s body goes back to normal rather quickly. But when a man doesn’t ejaculate, what happens? Sometimes he gets blue balls, or that feeling of heaviness and discomfort in the pelvic region. It can be frustrating and annoying, and yes, a little uncomfortable.

Is blue balls dangerous?

Contrary to what men might say when they’re in the throes of passion and really want to go further, having blue balls won’t cause any long-term damage to a guy’s equipment. Yes, the discomfort is real, and for some men that discomfort might border on pain. But it’s important to remember that the "pain" a man is feeling might be encouraged by psychological factors, especially if he was in the mood to have a frisky time in bed and the partner he chose suddenly decides they aren’t into him after all.

Preventing blue balls

Getting rid of blue balls is quite easy: It’s as simple as taking matters into one’s own hands. Masturbation is the perfect solution for this particular penis problem. Masturbating immediately is the best option; a guy can achieve this with a quick trip to the restroom to take care of the problem. If privacy is not immediately available, no worries - a guy can take his mind off the problem by doing something else in the interim, then taking care of blue balls at the first opportunity. The discomfort might even have dissipated by then.

If a man doesn’t have a chance to masturbate at all, no worries there either. The discomfort will fade away in a short period of time. Though blue balls can be frustrating, there won’t be any permanent damage that results from waiting for a while to get relief.

Whether a man has blue balls or not, it pays to keep the penis in tip-top shape so there are no issues outside of that simple, fleeting discomfort that might result from ejaculation denial. Avoid penis problems by reaching for a high-class penis health crème (health professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil, which is clinically proven mild and safe for skin). The crème should contain a plethora of ingredients known to help sustain penis health, such as amino acids for better blood flow and nerve enhancement, alphia lipoic acid to fight free radicals, and a wealth of vitamins to assist in all of the above. A crème that contains Shea butter and vitamin E is also recommended, as these ingredients can provide a serious punch of hydration that keeps penis skin smooth, supple and ready for action.

The good news is that in most cases, the reason...

Digging Into Male Masturbation Myths

March 26, 2018

Most men, if not all, masturbate, although there clearly is a wide variation in frequency. Some guys may go months, perhaps even years, between masturbation sessions, while other guys get in a little self-fondling a couple of times a day. And while there can be some penis health benefits to more frequent masturbation, as studies have shown that frequent ejaculations help decrease the risk of prostate cancer, occasional masturbation is still as normal as regular masturbation. Yet, despite how...

Penis Bumps? Look Into Purpura as Cause

March 21, 2018

Although penis skin is generally smooth, penis bumps are not uncommon. Sometimes they can be pale and hard to see, which is often the case with benign Fordyce spots. Other times they may be large and obvious, as is often the case with hives or warts. And although they are harmless, sometimes they can be a signal that something is not right, which is why searching for and examining penis bumps is part of a good penis care strategy. One potential cause to add to the list is purpura, a fairly c...

Penis Protection: A Day at the Nude Beach

March 20, 2018

Most guys start fantasizing about it before they’ve even hit puberty: spending some time at a nude beach. The aspect of being naked in public is enticing, but it’s nothing compared to the thought of being surrounded by other people in the all-together. Surprisingly, outside of dedicated nudists, there actually aren’t as many men who make a visit to a nude beach as one might think.
