Who has tried figging and what was it like?

Not sure this is the proper topic section but who has tried this and what was it like? Do you insert the entire piece like a suppository or just hold it till it melts? How long does the burn last ? Will a tap water enema ease the burning??

I've tried it! I'll be real and say ginger figging is some of the most painful burns I've felt down there. But that's not to say it wasn't quite enjoyable. It warms up fast, you put it in and think "Well, is that it?" and a few seconds later it begins.

The burning lasts a while, but in my experience it doesn't go past an hour. I don't hold mine very long though. The pain will be most intense while the root is inside, and then when you remove it the pain will slowly dissipate. The amount of pain will also depend on how big a piece you use, and how long you keep it inside. And ginger can't melt, so don't hold it like a suppository.

What I did was peel and whittle a single ginger knob down into a little butt plug, and insert it like that. I'm sure there's other ways to do it but I don't know of them. I encourage you to start small in size. Tap out if you get uncomfortable, it'll be intense!

I did a few very small water enemas as a rinse out after and it helped with the pain aspect. Lukewarm for the first few and then a colder one to finish is best for me.

I tried it with my sub, doing my best to prepare it appropriately: peeling, refrigerated etc. I inserted a piece into her anus after she'd been a particularly bad girl. The burning began in a few minutes and lasted the better part of an hour. In the final analysis (I was going to say in the end but thought better of it) it really didn't seem to be worth the effort to me but I'd urge folks to try it themselves.

Thank you!!!

I haven’t had ginger, but I have gotten Vicks vapor rub on/in my hole during spankings which is similar. It was meant to stop me from clenching. It starts cold and then feels sooooo hot and stingy! It does indeed stop clenching, because if it is applied like on the inner rim of the hole it burns so bad when you clench or squeeze. But it only lasts as a really intense burn for like 15ish minutes, and then just becomes uncomfy for a while after that. Tbh it’s more of a humiliation punishment I think.

My girlfriend in college introduced me to that after giving me an enema she inserted the ginger into my anus. I had to squeeze to retain the enema which increased the sting of the ginger. We both experimented with it. Very interesting feeling.

I've tried it multiple times, the experience tends to vary. Of course it depends on your personal pain tolerance, but it also depends on the ginger itself. The older it has been in your refrigerator, the more potent it is. Some people even ferment it to increase its potency, though I haven't tried that intentionally yet. I've also heard (and learned) that the smaller the piece of ginger is (naturally, meaning it was harvested early), the stronger it usually burns.

When I first tried figging it was with a relatively large piece of ginger that was fresh, so it was a mild heat kind of experience, it was quite nice and I did enjoy it. There have been times when the ginger would do nothing for me at all, and I'm assuming that this was the ginger itself's fault. There have been other times when the ginger felt unbearable and I would have to do everything in my power to not just take it out.

Today, I tried it again after a while and it was with an old piece of ginger that was as small as a finger, which ended up being a decision I would soon loathe. I scraped it with a fork before inserting it in my bottom, just to get the juices to the surface. I think I left it in for 30, maybe 40, seconds before I rushed to take it out, the burning was unlike any other I felt up until this day. It has now been an hour since I took it out and I can still feel it burning. It was the kind of pain that masochists dream of. As a masochist myself, I will probably end up doing this again with a similar piece of ginger, but with a dominant so that I can't take out the ginger early like I did today. I can only imagine how much more excruciating it would have been if I left it in for more time. I'd imagine it could be used as a punishment reserved for when a sub messes up badly.

I tried ginger number of times, both on my own and as part of D/s play.

Contrary to expectations, sensations varied from very mild to moderate heat, all in pleasure rather than pain zone.

I think the ginger variety or origin, or how it was grown, or maybe time of the year is more important than how 'old it is. I did not find much difference between fresh and 2 weeks old, but sensations varied between different batches.
