I'm not sure what this is

Well iv been on a routine which basically consists of 3x10 minute clamps and 100 dry jelqs just to get back into the swing of it after a good 2 month break.now I seem to be getting hard string like things under the skin on my shaft.this might be a stupid question but is it my ligs just becoming more noticeable or is this an injury?nothings sore and it does not seem to be veins?

You seem to be really new to PE seeing that you joined here in November of this year. If you are really new and have never stuck with or done something like the newbie routine here I suggest maybe doing that for a month or two and condition yourself for clamping. The hard string like things doesn’t sound good but if they are actually a little thicker then a normal string then I might start to believe that you were expanding your tunica in certain areas which is a sign of progress in clamping as far as I can tell (another description might be you feel ribs on the sides or somewhere on your shaft). The hard string like things if they are in fact as thin as strings could also possibly be little veins branching out from clamping from the main veins on your shaft. The word hard and veins are not two words you want to here together usually because this might indicate thrombosed veins, but somehow I think in your case if you just rest for like a 3-7 days you will recover enough and your dick will lose some of those strange feelings of the hard string like things. Maybe take a rest break like I said and just do a test to see if that is correct or not? Then if the rest clears that up you will know that if you get the problem again in the future it just takes a little rest (it might even help you gains :) ).

It’s probaly nothing you need to worry about at the moment but just be cautious and ask more questions if you feel you need to know something around here since there are many very knowledgable people here in PE.

Thanks lovemachine.I’m not a newbie iv been at it 2-3 years on and off but got into clamping not so long ago.I think it’s due to clamping that these string like things are appearing because the same thing happened 6 months ago when I tried it?so I think I’m gonna forget doing them for a while.I’m 5.1/4 in girth and 7.1/8th in length and id love to bigger in girth but maybe I should calm my routine down.possibly ill switch to a length routine for a while.anyway the string like things have gone and I’m gonna try clamping again tonight just to see if it happens again,if it does it’s definitely a rest then routine switch.cheers again helped allot.

He K1983, read this: Forum Guidelines. The posts you have posted here are difficult to read and this will have a negative effect on the replies you will get.

Sorry bird2 iv been away from school to long.

No excuse.

Those string like things may be clogged veins. You need to look up thrombosed veins and read a little. See if the description of them matches what you have.
