This is part one, written more than one year ago:
At A Glance Author joeseph When A year ago Artist myself Studio at home, in my bathroom Location somewhere in Brazil I am addicted to piercings for more than 12 years now. I am 44 years old. The last two years I was sending in some pictures to BME, but was never writing about my experiences.
Last year at springtime I got some Intravenous Cannulas from my doctor, who is a close friend to me. The outer diameter is 2.0 mm, inner diameter is 1.7 mm. These cannulas a doctor is using to give you an infusion, inside is a hollow needle, and just on the outside is a plastic tube and some valves. After inserting the needle into your skin, the needle is removed, and there is free access in the tube for the infusion, or , in my case, after cutting off the part which is having the valve, to insert a piercing ring or barbell. I tested the cannulas with success at home, doing two scrotum rings. The tips of the needle are very very sharp, so my first homedone piercings were easy. The price for one is about $1 US.
At March 24 2000 I was in the right mood to do another piercing at home. Because I wanted to do an Apadravya, expecting lots of blood, I prepared to sit on the edge of my bathtub. I already have a PA, so I only had to mark the top hole on the head of my penis. The mark was looking best in the middle of left and right and middle of top and bottom of the upper side of my penis head. My second reason for the middle was to avoid piercing of the two corpus cavernosa.
Sitting down naked on the edge of the bathtub, I carefully desinfected everything with Octenisept (R), a spray-on desinfection used by some piercers. On the side were some tools, a desinfected barbell, and a roll with paper towels, because I expected lots of bleeding.
Inserting the tip of the needle into the exit hole of my PA, I was carefully aiming upwards to my top mark. Pushing the needle was painless, and I was feeling a rush of endorphines running through my body. Then there was some resistance, after a short stop and a deep breath I continued pushing the needle upwards. Next to my top mark there was a little white point. After adjusting the direction of the needle, the tip emerged just next to my mark. When the needle surfaced, there was a popping sound and the blood began to run from my old PA hole over my hand into the bathtub. This shocked me a bit, I tried not to loose control, and the sweat was running down my armpits. Now came the hardest part, pushing the needle more upwards, until I could see the plastic tube. This was really painful and bloody. After cutting the plastic tube I inserted the barbell, this was easy, and screwed on the top ball.
Looking into the bathtub, there was about two big spoons of blood. Three minutes after inserting the barbell the bleeding stopped, and later this night or on the next days there was no bleeding at all, not even when I masturbated with my new piercing several times on the next days.
Five days later, March 29 2000, I decided to take out the barbell because the inner ball was giving me too much friction in my urethra, this was sometimes painful. With a ball closure ring I pushed out the barbell, this was easy. More work was to squeeze together the ring with pliers, this was a time consuming job, because the most of the ring was in the head of my penis. One time the pliers slipped of the ring and hit my dick, this was more painfull than the piercing with the needle. Next time I will take an oversize ring, this hopefully will be easyer.
Today, April 4 2000, my reverse PA is healing without problems. Now I have to wait for complete healing, then I will stretch the hole and insert a bigger ring because it looks better.
This is part two, written today:
After three months my Reverse PA piercing was healed completely. The first ring i inserted was 2mm (12ga), and i decided to stretch my hole. I tried it with a 2.5mm ring, and then with a 3mm barbell (8ga) . And after three more months finally i was able to insert my golden snake ring, which is having a shaft diameter of 3.5mm. This ring i was wearing until this summer, for more than one year. And then at a local piercers store i got a black titanium bcr, 4mm (6ga) . So i had to stretch again, but i know when i do my stretching slowly over months it is not painful. I was using some drops of baby oil twice a day for proper lubrication, making the healing much easier. Soon i will take some pictures of this new ring with my camera, this ring i like very much because of the contrast of the black metal to my light colored skin, and send them in to bme.
