Always Strapped
Jockstrap Fan
Before I share this three-part story, let me say right up front that I have a completely average-sized penis: no bigger than average, but no smaller than average, either -- a good, solid six inches hard. You'll see in a moment how that becomes relevant.
Part 1: About 20 years ago I started experiencing discomfort in my balls. I'd get up in the morning and all would be well. I'd shower, put on my briefs (my usual daily underwear back then), get dressed, and go to work. But then, by late morning, my balls would start aching. At first it would be a mild discomfort, but it would get worse and worse as the day went on. By 3 p.m. the aching would grow so bad that I would almost become nauseated. So I figured I should see my doctor about it. I went to him and described the problem. He referred to it as "scrotal fatigue" -- not that unusual among older men, although I was a little on the young side for that to occur -- and suggested that I wear a jockstrap and see if that helped. That sounded great to me since I loved wearing jockstraps, anyway. In fact, it had occurred to me that I did NOT experience this problem when I wore a jock -- it was only when I wore some other type of underwear, usually briefs. So I started wearing a jockstrap as my usual daily underwear. Sure enough, no more aching balls.
Part 2: A few years later, I began having prostate problems -- an enlarged prostate. One evening it got so bad that I wasn't able to urinate. The pain became terrible, so my husband and I went to the emergency room. After waiting there well over an hour (as my pain grew worse and worse), we were finally taken in for treatment. After I took off my clothes in preparation for catheterization, the nurse looked down at my crotch and exclaimed, "Oh, my gosh, you're all swollen up down there!" I looked down and said, "No, I'm not." But she insisted, "Yes, you are! Your testes are definitely swollen!" My husband looked at my balls and then back at her, saying, "No, he's not! Everything looks completely normal." So she shrugged it off, catheterized me, and sent us on our way.
Part 3: A few days after this occurred, I related what the nurse had said to my urologist. I asked him, "Do I have unusually large balls?" He chuckled and said, "Well, they're not freakish or anything like that but, yes, your balls are somewhat larger than average. Your penis is totally average, however." I guess it was no wonder that I had been experiencing scrotal fatigue and had to start wearing a jockstrap as a matter of routine. I suppose I'm lucky to have a fondness for jocks and don't mind wearing one all the time. I know some men wouldn't like that at all. But it's great by me!
P.S. - I was prescribed Flomax for the enlarged prostate. I haven't had any problems urinating ever since -- EXCEPT on those rare occasions when I forget to take my daily Flomax. Then it's agony!
