I’m wearing a steel cage with bars right at the tip! Since I’m fairly new to this, so is my keyholder. It seems like water flows through it just fine in the shower, but I have concerns about hygiene and getting sore spots on my penis. After sitting down to urinate, there’s some poor little alcohol left in the tip! I can leave it with a Q-tip, but I’m not sure which product is best: baby oil? Astroglide? KY? Or should I keep it dry? I’ve tried baby powder and that felt nice!
Why are you using alcohol? That will dry everything out. I found lotion works best. If you get chafing on the base ring, neosporin helps it heal better and provides longer-lasting lubrication compared to traditional lotions. Avoid KY or Astroglide because they’re sugar-based and can promote bacterial growth; stick with a pure oil or a non-sugar lotion instead. Every day I apply lotion to the area around the base ring, as well as the shaft and head that touch the bars. This helps everything slide smoothly throughout the day and night during erections, and when they subside, things return to their natural position without sticking to the steel cage. Make sure you dry off thoroughly after showering. It takes a bit of practice to get all the nooks and crannies completely dry. If you don’t dry well enough, that funk smell comes back much faster.
