Suturing shut my glans

[nuderthannude]

Hash,

You really should try the hair remover method first. It does the same thing as the cauterizer but doesn't heat the glans. It dissolves the outer most layer of flesh (in this case innermost). Once that is done a brass gun bore brush (.22 caliber) can be used to remove the dead flesh and expose raw flesh. There should be bleeding all the way around the inside of the urethra. A couple sutures can then be used to make sure the raw flesh is held together until it heals together. This is exactly what I did and it worked for me. I sealed off about 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch of my urethra. I am kind a wimp about pain but I used nothing at all for the pain.

Well, it can't hurt to give it a try. Maybe in a week or two. I'll let you know how it turns out. Did you swab a little of the hair remover down into the urethra?

You are aware that doing it like described in the post 2 above this one that you're asking for one hell of a Urinary Tract Infection (UTI).

The urinary system is a sterile environment, don't do these things unless you're going to do them properly.

OK, medical warning of the day over. Do as you wish.

Losethem,

I have a reroute, a surgical reroute performed by my female urologist. I pee naturally now sitting down, however, she didn't seal off things properly and urine leaks out through the tip of my glans, that's why I want to seal it off. I'm going to be careful, don't want it leaking down and corrupting my new orifice, but I'll tie things off and see what happens. Actually, I'm not all that motivated right now, that trip to the body piercer turned me off to things for a while. I found some chemical peel my wife had and it had lactic acid in it, I was tempted to use it, then I remembered Scotty's near death use of it, and poured it down the drain. She hadn't used it and it was old.

LT,
That's a great reminder, thank you.
Makes me shiver every time I see a vid on xtube with sounding, etc.

I used a Q-tip saturated with the hair remover an inserted it maybe 3/4 inch down my urethra. as long as you don't squeeze your urethra forcing the hair remover downward it will not travel downward on it's own. You want to leave it in for about 15 minutes to work then you can go in with a clean Q-tip to start to remove the skin and hair remover.

What I did after using the brass 22 cal bore brush to make sure all the top layer of skin was removed inside the urethra and make the urethra bleed was to take an ear syringe and fill it with water. I then inserted it into my reroute opening facing toward the tip and flushed my urethra out with water a few times to be sure there was no more hair remover remaining in my urethra. I then inserted a suture to keep the urethra held together for about a week until it healed together. You might not need the suture but helps.

Actually, it would be nearly impossible to get a UTI with the method I described. A UTI is caused by bacteria that grow and spread inside the urethra. The chemicals in the hair remover are not bacteria and don't grow and instead would be more likely to kill any bacteria.

I agree, I would not want any hair remover to get back to the prostate or bladder (or for that matter to the new reroute opening) but the urethra is designed to prevent that. It collapses normally sealing off and preventing things from getting back in. That is why pool water doesn't enter our urethra and get back to our bladder when we swim.

I'm betting you don't have a medical background. I do. We wouldn't want to listen to the person that actually has some basis for what they are saying, would we?

I stand by my original statement - the urinary system is a STERILE environment, and if you're going to go pushing things from outside your body into it, then I think you're going to get what you deserve. Perhaps you'll get lucky, but keep doing it that way and you're simply asking for health issues.

I certainly don't want to get into a peeing contest with you (with my urethral reroute I know I'd loose) but I believe you really need to question who in fact doesn't know what they are talking about.

UTI are caused by bacteria that grow in the urinary track not by chemicals. You insert into your urethra a Q-tip wet with with alcohol, hydrogen-peroxide, salt water, milk, water, milk, beer, hair remover, etc. and as long as they contain no bacteria there will not be a chance of a UTI. Some of the chemicals will actually kill any bacteria that may already have existed inside the urethra and on that the object that is used for inserting it.

I never got a UTI from inserting such chemicals into my urethra (not to say that some didn't cause a burning sensation and irritation) but I have gotten several UTIs from inserting metal or plastic objects (without and chemicals on them) that weren't totally free from bacteria.

Sorry, I will get into a pissing contest with you, urethral re-route or no. I don't say the following to belittle you in any way, and I think you are otherwise a good person. However...

It's a sterile environment - PERIOD. I don't care how careful you are, doing what you are doing WILL introduce foreign matter into your urethra which is a sterile environment from the glans clear back to your kidneys and beyond. I don't care what you're dipping the material or implements you're using in first, THEY ARE NOT STERILE.

I am VERY aware of what causes UTI's and other problems, and what you're advocating can cause it. Just because your personal experience is that you've not had one it doesn't mean that it can't happen. So others should do what you're saying at their own risk/peril.

I occasionally have to catheterize people, and even using sterile techniques approved by the AMA and CDC I could possibly introduce something into persons urinary system that will cause an infection and what you're doing and/or advocating is far more hazardous.

You may think you're right, but I do possess a professional title and license that tells people I know what I'm talking about. I've not heard that you've received anything similar from the appropriate authorities where you live. So at this point I have to take what you're telling people and justifying as safe as being complete BS.

Sorry if that's harsh, but that's just the way it is.

First off if I have given the impression that I am advocating anything I wish to clear that up. I am only sharing ideas. The decision to try something is entirely up to the person and that person assumes all the risks of what he does to himself. Yes, as you say, the urethra is a sterile environment so even something as common as sounding must be done correctly. In addition when we discuss things such as cutting, whether it be a meatotomy or glans splitting there are always risks of infection or complications and everyone must understand the risks and make their own decisions. The best thing one can do is learn as much as possible before proceeding.

BTW - I do know of another individual that had successfully chemically sealed off the tip of his penis.
