Message: Feeling Dry and Raw Even With Lube
Anonymous: So my husband and I started anal play a few months ago and it’s been wonderful! Some of the best orgasms I’ve ever had. But there are times, more often then not, that it feels dry and raw but there’s plenty of lube and spit. It can make it really uncomfortable. I was wondering if there is a certain type of lube the works to prevent this? Or if I’m doing something wrong myself? Thanks!
It’s somewhat odd to feel dry if using enough lube. Be sure that both of you (or you and the entire surface of a toy being used) are well-lubricated so that the lube gets deep enough inside to reach everywhere important.
A raw, burning feeling can sometimes arise from certain materials—jelly toys and some others can cause a skin reaction for some people and should be avoided in favor of pure silicone, glass or stainless steel. If fingers are causing the sensation, calluses or sharp edges from fingernails can be unpleasant, and sweat, dirt or certain soaps on fingers can cause a burning sensation or raw feeling.
You can and should certainly try other types of lube as well. Coconut oil, silicone lube (never use along with silicone toys!), a wide variety of water-based lubes, and others. Some people can react negatively to certain lubes, sometimes resulting in a burning sensation, so it’s definitely worth experimenting with that as well.
Good luck! I hope you are able to figure it out and can keep up the awesome anal fun and the fantastic orgasms that result from it!
