Sleep is good for BXO healing

This is very odd indeed. I'm sick at the moment with what appears to be a regulation case of the common cold. I started getting a sore throat around about midday on thursday (it's saturday night here now). In the few days before, I'd noticed my skin itchier than normal. Nothing alarming. Just noticeable. Then in the afternoon on Thursday I noticed some tiny, almost 'blistery' marks near fingernail on the side of one of my fingers, accompanied by a slight itching. I never made an association, instead figuring I must have touched some substance my skin disagreed with.

Thursday night, for some reason, I decided to use a little Tea Tree Oil on my BXO skin, and when I woke up on friday morning, my cold had gotten worse and my BXO skin was feeling quite itchy. I look at it, and it's looking almost a little 'puffy'. Some areas are redder than usual. I assume maybe it was due to some sexual fluids left on it from the previous evening. Wash it thoroughly, then put moisturiser on it throughout the day. Itching eases slightly, but not by a lot. More moisturiser applied friday night, wake up on saturday with a little less itching and a little less redness, but still noticeable. By this stage, my cold has really taken a hold of me and I'm low in energy levels and high in aches. I try my best to live a normal day on saturday, but find myself more and more in need of lying down. Eventually, I do this. As I get up to go to the toilet, I check my BXO. Itching and redness is subsiding, but puffiness remains.

At about 5:30pm I decide I've had enough and lie down to get some sleep. I awake at about 8:30pm, and notice no more puffiness, itching or redness. Not a gradual decline, but it's all gone. Right back to how it looked early in the week.

WHAT.... THE..... HECK?????

As good as it gets (with pics)

I thought it was time I did an update with pictures. This is more or less what I have been looking like now for some time now. I think it's safe to say that what I have now is as good as it's going to get. Considering what I looked like when I started, I don't think it's bad going. Here's a list of all the issues I no longer have: Fully normal sexual function, without risk of injury Skin feels normal and supple to the touch, and has regained sensitivity Skin looks normal by and large, particularly on top No partner has ever commented that anything looks abnormal I feel 'normal' again But of course, it's not perfect. I've had to accept a few slight issues: A very small amount of itching sometimes occurs after sexual activity There are still some small areas of white skin I have to maintain dryness. I don't know this for a fact, but due to the slow progression of this disease, it's not something that is conducive to experimentat

Update on final cleanup

I've not been particularly diligent at using treatments these past few months. Apart from the occasional use of Tea Tree Oil, I haven't really been using anything. That being said, I am still noticing extremely but steady improvement on my glans. the place where I still have the worst covering of white BXO skin is on the base of the glans, where urine naturally gravitates toward after dribbling. This was probably the thickest covering all along. Measuring the progress of this late recovery is challenging. To measure how much white skin I have requires a reasonable amount of blood flow to my glans. Without that, there's little contrast between the different areas. But Tea Tree Oil tends to promote blood flow anyway, so it gives the impression that progress is happening faster than it perhaps is. I am trying to not to fixate over progress too much, and just focus on the basics - after urination, dry, dry, then dry some more. Even then, I will occasionally check to make su

BXO Healing Guide

After considerable time contemplating how I could best serve the world of BXO sufferers, I am pleased to finally bring you the BXO Recovery Plan . The plan is a step-by-step process detailing each of the stages in the healing process and what you should do along the way. Initially I contemplated making an eBook, but in the end I decided against this for several reasons. First, I'm not qualified in functional or natural medicine, and I didn't feel write publishing a book giving advice about this. Second, I don't want to reveal my identity. I don't know how feasible this is when publishing a resource and collecting income from it. But what finally helped me make my decision was this: You have all suffered and paid enough already. I know what it's like when you have BXO and you want it gone. You'd do almost anything to get rid of it. This often means spending money on yet another miracle cure. I didn't want to be 'yet another miracle cure'. The gu
