TOPIC: Lumps post 10%, 20% and30% PMMA

hmmm... missed this whole thread until a member PM\'d me wondering if I had experienced the \'bumps\'. Answer is: yes, but to a very minimal and acceptable level. I didn\'t even notice until I answered that PM. I have one \'bump\' that is less than 1mm, actually more like .5mm, and completely subsurface- only dectectable by palpation. I have not experienced noticeable collagen growth and I\'m at 4 weeks post procedure. I also had allo several years ago; smartman.. you\'re making me nervous... Smartman- why do you believe the allo would be succeptible to infection all these years later? Without having an extensive knowledge in this area, I would intuitively assume it has assimilated and is now just as likely to get infected as any other area. M7- any issues with this? Honestly, the one \'bump\' I can detect resembles a vein and is right on top of the scar from the allo. I wasn\'t concerned... should I be? I had injections from glans side with 10%.

At my last session, an injection was made below circ scar. It has left a scar. I\'m not sold on the new technique of injecting immediately below glans or in any area of the main shaft. Thus far, the least problematic injection sites have been from base.
Already, I have received several reports from reputable Members (whom have chosen not to post complications) about nodules at injection sites immediately below glans, via new technique and cannulas.

Every one should feel free to post problems and successes on this site. This is exactly the point of our forum. Members and Doctors will benefit from our experience. Doctors will actually make more patients happy and make more money in the process from learning to improve their techniques. Patients as a result will also experience lesser problems. I have been thru enough shit that I do not wish any more problems on any one else.

Hi Rondo,
What I am saying if anyone had previously a penile graft and his entry points didn\'t close and they were contaminated with e.g. water, the bacteria can attack your old graft---> severe infection of the old graft.
So what I am saying the infection can occur early if the entry holes were not closed, so in your case you shouldn\'t get worried now you are already 4 wks post-injection.
The whole reason why I have said that (infection of the old graft e.g. Alloderm) is in my 1st round in 2008 in Rio I was with my friend who had also alloderm like me in 2007, in his case the entry point at the Circumcision scar (exactly in the center where was the old incision for the alloderm near the glans done by Dr. R.) didn\'t close early like mine (I think the doctor injured the dorsal vein at this area when he did a small stab wound before inserting the cannula), my friend was careless he went for a swimming in the 4-5th day while he was still mildly oozing ((so his old alloderm was directly in contact with the bacteria (air and water) through the entry holes)) ---> after few days he developed severe infection (swelling, severe penile throbbing pain and fever) ---> I.V. antibiotic and surgery (pus, evacuation the old alloderm graft and the PMMA)---> scar formation---> temporary dorsal peyronie, temporary penile shortening but he has a permanent dorsal skin loss of sensation now. Thank god he is fine now except the loss of sensation. Even after this bad experience I went back again after 8 months to the same doctor and I insisted no entry points near to my glans, and I was fine afterwards (my friend thought I was so crazy to do the procedure again after his bad experience looool).
So that is the main reason why I have mentioned this many times before to everyone who had penile graft ( if you want to be on the safe side as much as you can Dr. C. should give you one shot I.V. antibiotic 30-60 min. before the procedure and an oral antibiotic afterwards and avoid water to the entry points until they are completely closed). Believe me if you ask any doctor (esp. a surgeon) he will advise you the same).

Hey guys. I got round #1 10% PMMA mid October. I definately had incisions near glans so assume they were using \"new\" cannulas at that time. I got confused and didn\'t really do too much squeezing out of excess fluid near those incisisions, and moved quickly to use that liquid bandage in those incisions areas, which burns like a bitch. I have no problems as noted there and de minimus \"ring\" or \"speed\" bump between glans and shaft. I am scheduled to go round 2 next months. I am wondering if I should go for the 20% PMMA or stay 10% as this worked out well. I am just under 5\" EG at lowest point (upper mid shaft) and base is closer to 5.5\". I would like to be at least 5.5\" at my lowest point. Have a short unit (5\") and small glans so can\'t really do much more. What\'s crazy is that my unit is still very small flacid (though retract less) but it is a decent fat boy when Erect. I am thinking if I can get my 5.5\" I am done and try to focus on my fitness. 5.5 MSEG and custom suits >> 6 in my world lol. Anyone come up with answers to glans yet or is this a live with it deal? If my glans were bigger, so would be my EL so if you\'ve got answers I\'d love to hear them!

Hey bighat, when you say your length is 5\", is that bonepressed or none-bonepressed?

I\'m 10 days post op and definintely have some bumps between circ scar and head. I assumed collagen would help either bind or soften the bumps as time went on, and that they were mearly the consequence of getting limited PMMA up there. Anyone seen a reduction in these lumps/bumps over time (they\'re nothing I would consider injecting)?

@Fedup, it\'s bonepressed, but non bone pressed is really the same, my fat pad is quite minimal. Bone pressed \"ouch\" I get to 5 1/8. This is odd since I am stocky and don\'t grade out too well in BMI. I exercise regularly but eat too much. I have heard urban myth that you can\'t have circumferance that is greater than lenght. That\'s totally BS really. My unit looks far more natural NOW than pre surgery in terms of SIZE. MY base easily handles that 5.5\" and so should my midshaft. KEy issue is GLANS. One thing is that Erect the glans, while small, is not so dwarfed as it is in Flaccid state. Dude I am thinking I could care less about the flacid state. When this thing pumps up it pumps up. I can\'t worry what other dudes think in the locker room

@Soma
Don\'t worry as the shape and size of your penis will change greatly over the course of 2 months. Mine is still \"evolving\" and I\'ve noticed some things I like more and some I like less. You may notice a reduction of said bumps over the course of 8 weeks. You likely also have some residual swelling that should continue to subside in time.

quote from Paso\'s progress thread: 6 weeks
Six weeks since round 1 and Erect gains are still an Inch at the base and just over half an Inch mid and a quarter Inch directly below glans. I have noticed Flaccid is a little smaller from mid to glans. I can feel allot more bumps especially around the base. still very happy... Guys- I think this \'bump\' thing is an inherent caveat of the procedure itself and although it should be observed, shared, and monitored- it seems to me it is, in and of itself, quite harmless and aesthetically insignifigant in most cases. Paso and others have observed the same bump or whisker effect when injected from the base... so why not try both? One session from one direction, another session from the other. Perhaps you\'ll then have whiskers and a tail.. like a penile scunchi! sweet. Unless I suddenly die from an embolism, I\'m gonna roll with this minor inconvenience. Small price to pay- right gentlemen? Regards

EL 6\"
EG 5.5\" at base

thought I\'d share... Had a BJ last night and sex to follow. My GF said she could \'feel\' the bump just behind glans with her tongue (I told her about it), but it was no big deal. She could only feel the one. Minor. Sbe also said \'it\' feels harder/firmer now compared to when I pumped... just that the glans doesn\'t get as full. fair assessment, reasonable result.

Oh p.s.- those aren\'t my stats in the last few posts, they must have carried over from a \'quote\' I stole from someone else. I measured after that \'session\' last night and was 6.375 MSEG, 7ish EL, more straight than tapered. Still holding strong, no major complaints.

Rondo is huge! I need to correct my post also I thought my tiny grain at the incision point had gone. it hasnt I just hadnt felt it for a while. Slightly white hue to it like EP had. Anyway will see how it goes.

Dr. Nacul had problems with Lebon laboratories (the producer of NewPlastic) so now they are bringing a better, cleaner PMMA product to the market \" Art-Safe \"???
When I get more information about this new product and when it will be in the market (it sounds soon), I will inform you.
I think we should ask Dr. C. more about the old and the new products ??

Update?
Thanks!

Still nothing

I talked to Dr C directly and was told that the new PMMA will be produced exactly like the previous Newplastic, the changes in names are due to some politics and internal managerial differences of opinion...we should get info from all possible sources to assure accurate judgments.
