How long CAN you force a man to keep an erection before it because dangerous?

I've done some searching and I'm not finding any times that are within close range of each other. This wiki article here: Clicky. says that "Vendors of cock rings always indicate that cock rings are not to be worn for more than 20-30 minutes.".

While I know I've heard tell that it if stays hard fore more then two hours one should seek medical attention.

There is a bit of a time difference there, isn't there?

Now to clarify, here is what I had in mind: using a cock ring with snaps (so it comes off quickly in case of emergency) to keep a guy hard long enough, with no other stimulation to the area, for it to become painful, but not actually cause any harm. Hospitals are only sexy in make believe.

I know companies are trying to cover thier asses, what with all the accidental sex-related deaths, but 30 minutes? Really? That's all? Not that I was planing on keeping one on for more then an hour, or two, provided, again, that it did no actual harm.

Thanks for any resources or links you can point me in the direction of!

(Edited to fix link.)
 
I don't know if this has any factual value or not, but the commercials for the two major erection stimulating drugs have warnings about seeking medical help if the erection lasts more than four hours. So it seems like an hour or two should be safe -- but I'd check that out with valid medical sources.

:)
 
4 hours, as they always say on TV.

Probably depends on your health.
 
I very much appreciate the fast responce, thank you both very much.

I still remain leary of trusting what the TV has to say, even if it's following a viagra add.

Does anyone have any more offical citation of this glorious sounding "Four Hours"? Perhaps a book or a official medical website?
 
I just checked the official Viagra web site and it confirms the four hour warning. I don't think Pfizer would state this on their product website unless it was medically proven.
 
Maybe we shouldn't be comparing the effects of cock rings with erectile dysfunction drugs, since a cock ring physically constricts the blood vessels, which is something the drugs don't do -- or at least I wouldn't think they would do.

Yes, that is another concern of mine, the bloodflow dynamic is intirely diffrent, rings restrict and the drugs do what, expand? The isn't a whole lot of blood flow with a ring, I don't want my toy to break from lack of oxigen to the area.
 
You could go to a few reputable sites that sell cock rings and ask them (most sites have a place to leave a message or send an e-mail). Then compare the answers you get and see what most of them say.
 
I usually stick to 15 20 minutes for tying off, it's just safer and it feel plenty long. I just do other things that are edgier with it, the rules of thumb regarding blood flow just seem like easy enough good sense.

There's something very maddening about 15 on, off, on, off, on.

Netzach (How do you pronounce your name?):

I guess I am underestimating the fact that when one is in an uncomfortable position, time seems to go slower. So maybe 15-20 minutes is all one needs? And if not, all of the sites do seem to say 30 minutes, I'm sure that would suffice.

I do like the idea of on, off, on, off. Hopefully that would be more frustrating, as you suggested.

Maybe I'll try making myself uncomfortable or inflict some light pain and then just sit there for 15 minutes to see how it feels, time wise.

Once again, thank you all for your help.

Physical constriction would appear to be the issue. A cock ring is, in effect, *crushing* the blood vessels that allow blood in and out of the penis to restrict that flow. While arteries and veins are made of a reasonably elastic material, continued and/or repeated strong pressures on that material could be dangerous to its health.
 
My PYL is a physician and has experience treating ED patients that use cock rings in conjunction with a pump. I will ask him about it this evening.
 
Sir_Winston54: Aye, seems the two main causes for concern would be damaging the tissue from compression, and causing it to become blood starved. (And mopping up thier little subbie tears.)

Callinectes2: I very much look forward to hearing what your husband has to say on the matter, thank you very much!

Perhaps I could scare the hell out of them by makeing them THINK I've horribly damaged it. Like blind fold them, out a terribly uncomfortBle cock ring on, then rub some sort of lube/oil on them that has the tinest amount of blue food colour? Hmmmm...
 
are you talking about a cock ring that goes around the shaft only? cause the ones that go under the bollocks and over the top if the cock are fine 24/7

I'm not really looking for information on penis jewelery or accessories, more so then a way to safely keep a guy erect for an uncomfortable amount of time.
 
Whew, I ended up with a medical lecture. LOL! Daddy said 30 minutes is the absolute limit. He went on to say you should allow a minimum of 60 minutes between applications of the cock ring (or tension ring as he calls it).


I hope that helps!

ETA: The large difference in times between the ED drugs and tension ring use is related to the actual physical constriction of the blood vessels. With an ED drug the blood can (and probably will) leak back out of the penis Obviously the ring does not allow for any leakage out only new blood flowing in.

Thanks callinectes2, that was very informitive! Please send him my thanks!

I have a hypothetical, if you don't mind asking him this as well. What if I put it on in conjunction with a penis pump? Should I cut the time back further?
 
Daddy advises against using the pump and rings if your partner has no difficulty getting and maintaining an erection. He said you are most welcome but to please be careful. He's a worrier. :)

ahh, I was just corrected on my post of last night. He pointed out that it read as if I was saying there was a normal supply of blood going in even with the ring. Once the ring is in place the supply of fresh blood is severely limited.

Don't worry, Call, I read your previous post just as you ment, so no harm done. Thank you for asking him these questions for me, I very much appreciate it.

That sounds like quite an interesting session.
 
I usually go with a similar on/off regime, maybe 30-40 mins on and maybe 20-30 mins on. I find it quite teasing that way, as it simply dosent feel as good without the ring on (once it has been on and taken off), and I just cant wait to get it back on.
 
This post made me think of something that went through my mind recently. Basically, almost the same thing but I was wondering if there were any dangers in having a hard on for excessive amounts of time - not using cock rings or drugs - just au natural. It seems like there would really be no danger in having a hard on for like 16 straight hours or something like that (assuming you would sleep 8 hours per day), since there were no blood restrictions or meds you had to worry about. I'm talking about either keeping yourself constantly hard or someone else forcing you to stay hard.
 
Since the length of time of an erection apparently is a health issue -- you could focus on causing him a bit of extra discomfort in the relatively limited period of time he is forced to remain erect. A good example would be to use a cock ring with small spikes on the inside, for added "discomfort". I owned one of these devious rings several years ago, but unfortunately misplaced it. :devil:
