Wow! How it did hurt!

As I saw the insertion rod being pushed slowly through the head of my dick, I thought I was about to explode. I have never felt that kind of a pain before. It was not the kind you get when you break a leg or you get a serious cut or scratch on your knee. That hurts for sure – but this – this pain was different. I felt my stomach revolving and I was gasping for breath. I clenched my teeth and the sweat started running down my forehead. Was I going to die? Hardly! After all we´re just talking about the changing of the size of a barbell!

Piece of cake, right? Just pushing out the old barbell and put in a new and larger gauged one! Well, at least that was what I had thought prior to this experience! Being in the middle of the ordeal, I was starting to doubt. Should I ask the piercer to stop, to take out the enlargement rod and put back in again the old barbell? No, that would be the choice of a coward! Wouldn´t it? At least, that´s what I thought. In stead I gasped for breath and cried out of pain: "Fuck – give it a break!"

The piercer took the signal. He paused, let me catch my breath - he even put a piece of paper on top of my forehead so that I could wipe off my sweat. Then he put some more clear liquid onto the enlargement rod – you know that stuff that helps the sliding in of the jewel to go more smoothly – and then he pushed on.

"Augh!" Again I had to gasp after breath. Again he stopped. "I know exactly what you´re going through," he said. "I have experienced exactly the same pain myself when I stretched my ampallang!" Yeah, right! Just what I wanted to hear, while I am lying there as another animal ready for slaughter on the piercing bench, squirming like a warm out of pain!

More gliding ointment, and just in case some local anaestetic – "although it has really no effect for a stretch like this," he added. Great comfort to hear! And on he pushed! My head was spinning by now, my stomach was about to dispose of my lunch, not exactly a wished for situation. The piercer gave it a last push and the enlargement rod was through!

"Was that it?" I said. "Not quite," the piercer added. "Now I have to push the jewel, the barbell through!" It turned out the stretching rod had been just the size of the barbell, 2.4 mm. As he started to push the barbell through I braced myself for a new shock of pain – with reason! Although not as painful as getting the enlargement pin though my dick, this hurt too. Half way through, it stopped. It had lost contact with the enlargement pin and would not find the entrance hole on the other side of the urethra. To my dismay I realised that the piercer had to put in a new enlargement pin, with a diameter that was a bit larger than the 2.4 mm he just had pushed through my penis. This was the only way he could get the barbell all the way through, inserting the barbell into the wide end of the pin so that it could be pushed snugly in place.

Yet again I drew my breath. I knew what was coming by now! Yet, another huge strike of pain. My preparations were not in vain. As the piercer pushed the new enlargement pin through, the same wretched pain as I had just had some moments ago reappeared. Flashes went through my head, I felt dizzy, and ready to puke. He gave the rod a last push. "It´s through," he pronounced. "Whew!" I said. "What a sucker!" It really was! My head still spinning, I started drawing my breath more freely. I looked down as the piercer screwed the balls onto the barbell. "Is it really 4mm shorter than the previous barbell?" I asked. Looking down at it where it was sticking out of the head of my penis, which at that moment had taken the same size as when you have been skinny dipping in ice-cold water – the barbell looked extremely long. The piercer took out the measuring tool and checked. "Yes it is," he confirmed. Good! "The previous barbell was too long, so I hope this one will be fitting just snug ly," I added. Still a bit in doubt looking down at my tortured member.

My head was still tingling, now my dick started tingling as well. The initial shock was over and as I was relaxing so my dick started growing a bit bigger again. As my dick was about to assume a more normal size again, one thing was sure, its mechanics were still working just fine! "Are you planning to stretch it again," asked the piercer now, I do not know if he meant the question to be a joke. It did not matter. "Sure – why not," I replied.

Despite the pain, it had not been so unbearable that I would not put myself through the same experience yet again. Besides, this time I stretched it directly from 1.6 mm to 2.4 mm, or in other words two sizes up. Next time I will be just taking one size at a time, meaning that although painful, it will most likely be a bit less painful than this time. Furthermore, I do not particularly like the small-gauged piercings, so I definitely will have to go through the same procedure at least once or twice more! "Since it is 2.4mm now, I do not recommend you to stretch it more than to 3 or 3.2 mm next time, then to 4mm and so on," the piercer now added. "Yes," I said. "How long should I wait until next time? One or two months or half a year as I did between having my ampallang done and this, my first stretching?" I asked. "Usually one month is enough between each stretch, but I recommend that you wait two months so that it can get fully healed and stabilised," my piercer told me.

Case closed, I pulled up my pants again, wiped off the last drops of sweat still on my forehead with the piece of paper the piercer had given me before I disposed of it. And then I went down to pay. My head still tingling and my dick feeling a bit numb and in a state of internal shock I had already made up my mind. In two months I´ll be back for another stretch! After all, now that I had the torturous moments behind me, I just felt great and really happy for having gone through the ordeal.
