Another thread about blister prevention

I have two observations.

1. After getting my first blister I believe it became EASIER to get more as the later ones all seemed to occur in the same part of my glans.

2. Baby powder on the glans has been very effective at preventing blisters. I wear it under a silicone glans protector (AKA as a toe protector). Believe the baby powder dries out the skin which apparently makes blister formation less likely.

That’s my experience too. I don’t know why the baby powder/talc works, but it seems to help a lot. As I mentioned before, I also use a bit of tape, and that also seems to help reduce the fluid buildup. Like VKN, I kept getting recurring blisters in the same place. It seems to take longer to recur when I let the skin heal completely, with no additional redness in the area. Cutting down the length of a set and the weight reduces, but does not eliminate, blister recurrence. While I’m healing, I use a compression hanger to reduce the stress on the skin.

But the only thing that has done the trick so far, for me, has been the combo of microfoam tape, talc, and silicone cap under the hanger.

Thanks for the good info, can you please explain how to apply the baby powder? I read some people say they dump some in the center of the cap and pull it over the glans, while others coat the glans before applying the cap. Is coating a small layer on the glans enough, or should we dump a good amount into the cap so the glans are surrounded by a thick layer of powder?

I do it the first way, since I think the idea is to absorb fluid and keep everything dry. Sounds like a good experiment though - try it both ways and see which is better.

I just sprinkle it on my glans and fit the cap over the top using two fingers to spread it.
