You’ve surely heard the stories of sex toy mishaps and felt the recoil, the tension in your most sensitive places, natural to imagining such an incident for yourself or for your sexual partner. But you’re probably here because those stories haven’t deterred you from your interest in the sexual wellness that sex toys offer. And that’s good, because sex toy incidents, in actuality, are quite rarer than sensationalist media would have you believe.
“As long as you use sex toys as intended, they are generally safe,” reports Health News.
Here’s how you can be sure that your play is safe.
Sex toy accidents are really uncommon, but they do happen. The number one reported accident, and surely the most unfortunate, is an object stuck in the anus, rectum or colon.
“If you find yourself in a situation where a toy is stuck in your anus, it’s crucial to avoid attempting to remove it yourself,” advises Health News. “Trying to extract the toy yourself can potentially push it further up the rectum, leading to potential injuries. Instead, it’s important to remain calm and seek immediate medical attention by going to the nearest emergency room. Medical professionals have the expertise and tools necessary to safely and effectively remove the toy, ensuring your well-being and preventing any further complications. It’s important to remember that medical professionals are there to help you and will not judge you.”
If you find yourself with a cock ring stuck on your penis, of course, remain calm. Then, try adding lubricant to aid in the removal of the cock ring. If that doesn’t work, a cold shower can help reduce swelling and may alleviate an erection, making it easier to remove the ring.
If the cock ring is silicone or plastic, a partner can help to stretch the material gently. Do not use scissors or any sharp objects, which can cause harm to the penis. If, after all these options have been exhausted you are still stuck with the cock ring, seek medical assistance promptly.
If you find yourself in a situation with a toy stuck in your vagina, don’t panic.
“The good news is that you can usually retrieve it yourself by following a few simple steps, says Health News. “Start by squatting down, which helps open up the vaginal canal. With clean hands, gently insert one or two fingers into the vagina and locate the toy. Slowly and carefully maneuver your fingers around the toy’s base or handle and gently pull it out. Remember that sex toys and other objects cannot get lost in the vagina. The cervix at the end of the vaginal canal serves as a natural barrier, preventing objects from going further. If you encounter any difficulty or cannot remove the toy, it’s advisable to seek medical assistance for safe and proper removal.”
