Clever Uses for Cock Rings
Cock rings are worn around the base of the penis and sometimes the testicles to make erections harder, bigger, and longer-lasting. They come in various materials like silicone, rubber, leather, and metal.
While cock rings mainly help maintain an erection, some have added features like vibrations or anal beads for other types of stimulation, even without a penis.

5 Tips from Raptureworks experts
1. ED Treatment - Erectile dysfunction (ED) is trouble getting or keeping an erection for sex. It's more common with age but can happen anytime. It can be a one-time issue due to factors like alcohol or fatigue or a recurring problem from medical, relational, or mental health issues.
A cock ring for ED slows blood flow out of the penis, keeping it hard longer. It works best if you can get a partial or full erection. If not, a penis pump can help before using the cock ring. You can also try our penis sleeves range for extra size.
2. Bigger Erections - Even if you get hard easily, a cock ring can make your erection bigger and harder. Some use it for the look, others for the sensation. While it can make your penis appear slightly larger, don't expect a dramatic change. Wearing it too tight can cause unwanted swelling and pain.
3. Enhanced Sensation - A cock ring can increase sensation, making masturbation, oral sex, and intercourse more enjoyable. By slowing blood flow, it prolongs sensation and can lead to more powerful orgasms. However, it shouldn't cause pain. Remove it immediately if you feel any discomfort.
4. Clitoral Stimulation - Vibrating cock rings can stimulate the clitoris even without a penis. Slip one over your fingers, a dildo, or a strap-on for solo or partner play. You can also use it with another vibrating toy for internal and external stimulation.
5. Enhanced Hand Jobs - Vibrating cock rings can be worn on your fingers or palm during a hand job. You can also have your partner wear it while you stroke them. If you prefer a bit more kinky fun, we also have a special section of a bondage cock rings.
