Caths and sounds

Any one into Catheters and sounding?

( hope I have put this in the corredt page) :-)

Please, PLEASE, get training before using sounds! This is urgent, ruptured organs are a surgical emergency and can lead to permanent injury or death. Please, if you have not been trained by an experienced professiona, do not do this.

I had a may prostate surgically removed for cancer about 10 years ago and I truly miss popping a load. I am lucky to have would I would call a"girly" orgasm (no disrespect intended-there is nothing like spurting the jiz). I was curious as to what a prostate massage with a Van Buren sound feels like. I have read a lot of posts about technique but not much if anything about the sensation. I will visit the forum noted but if anyone wants to comment, it is welcome. Thanks,

Any tips on balloon size for foleys? i don't know which size to go with?

Hi sv18. Usually most people retain a 5cc balloon without difficulty. I cannot remember the last time I used a 30cc balloon on any patient who used F/C of 24G or less. Always be careful that the catheter is in the bladder before attempting to inflate the balloon, you don't want to cause the kind of pain produced by attempting to inflate a balloon while it is in the urethra and rupture is possible. Safety First, if you are unsure, don't proceed.

Typically, a 5cc foley catheter requires 10cc to properly fill the balloon. Most catheters will have this clearly marked on the package. Always use sterile water (not saline) to fill the balloon. Using saline might results in crystals forming in the small lumin that goes to the balloon resulting in an inability to deflate the catheter. The reason to use sterile water (different from deionized or distilled water) is because after a prolonged catheterization, water does leach out of the balloon into the bladder due to osmotic pressure.

Be sure to always follow sterile technique protocols by use of: (Preferable to use contents of a Foley Administration Kit)

1. Sealed sterile foley package.

2. Sterile lube and slip tip syringe.

3. Sterile gloves.

4. Create sterile field by swabbing with Betadine or similar solution.

Be sure to:

1. Properly lubricate the catheter and the urethra.

2. Insert slowly - Never force the catheter into the patient. Force can damage the urethra.

3. If it is a male patient - hold the penis perpendicular to his body to straighten the urethra.

4. Gently insert the catheter until it is fully in the patient. Then inflate the balloon and pull back to seal the bladder outlet.

5 For removal, remember to fully deflate the balloon and slowly withdraw the catheter.

I like catheters.. im not into sounds.. its to rigid and kinda scares me

Use caution when using a sound! I bought the smallest sound that was sold at a sex shop and have taken the entire length which is probably not a good idea as it is curved in opposite directions and is probably only intended to be inserted halfway. I am intrigued by stretching my urethral opening of my glans and have inserted several objects SLOWLY but often I will have a burning sensation when I pee and once I ejaculated blood! The blood was mixed with semen and came out in 4 or 5 spurts, that happened a day or two after I was inserting another object. This taught me that you have to be EXTREMELY CAREFUL down there. Play safe!

We most often use a sound, or sounds,with E-stim before using a catheter.It helps to relax and lubricate the passageway beforehand.

Can't say it often enough - be careful when administering a catheter or sound. Serious damage can be caused.

But, if you know what to do, and how to do it Catheterization is a nice way to play.

I'll not add another warning on the use of catheters, it was well done on previous posts, and I just can agree with it.

So, I use caths since years, and was lucky guy with no problem at all. Well used, it's a great device: total lost of control, after inserted it's great to not have any need to pee. I use it with bag or just diapers, and love the freedom feeling it give. For other, I know it can be very worst to loose some sort of control, and being dependent of some cares... It can be some good sort of bondage!

I love having Master use sounds on me. I look forward to having Him Cath me someday.

I got up the courage to buy a cath kit and use it on myself ONCE. Without health insurance, I'm paranoid about getting a UTI or damaging something, even though I know with the proper caution, the risk of that is really low. But I *loved* the feeling of the tube pushing past my prostate!
