New User Needs Help and Tips Concerning Chafing

[jfry]

I bought the HT2 and it's very comfortable most of the time, but after several hours there is some chafing going on behind the ring, so on day one I woke my wife up at 2am to let me out. I thought the goal was to stay as dry as possible so the next day I put on a lot of baby powder before putting the device on, but same issue.

I have ordered the next size larger ring, but I'm not convinced that's the problem. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, I'm not looking for permanent scarring or anything like that.

I'm really hoping to get this under control as quickly as possible, as the wife has quickly taken to her role and I don't want her to cool to the idea.

Thanks in advance,

-Jeffrey
