Brief Answer:
apply both in anus as well as on condom

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

You are asking about anal sex between two men.

Lignocaine gel is used in sex for two purposes. One is lubrication and second is to prevent pain.

In anal sex it should be applied inside anus to prevent pain during sex. It should also be applied over condom on penis for lubrication.

If condom is not used, preferably it should not be applied on penis as it may reduces penile sensation and difficulty in getting orgasm.Only apply in anus in that case.

Wash hands as well as local area with soap before applying gel.

Note: Anus is full of bacteria and microorganisms. It is much better to use condom to prevent infection. And overall anal sex can damage mucosa of anus and can cause problem sometime.So better to avoid anal sex as much as possible. Ultimate decision is of both partners.And if purpose of using lignocaine gel is lubrication only,use KY water based gel.

Hope I have answered your query, I will be happy to help further.

Regards,
Dr.Chintan Solanki

THIS IS INFORMED THAT IN CASE NO CONDOM IS USED THEN JELLY IS TO BE APPLIED IN ANUS & NOT ON PENIS. BUT IF PENIS IS INSERTED IN THE ANUS IN WHICH JELLY IS APPLIED JELLY IS GOING TO BE RUBBED ON THE PENIS. IS THIS HARMFUL. ALSO IF CONDOM IS USED THIS JELLY WILL BE APPLIED OUTSIDE CONDOM BUT IN THIS CASE BEFORE WEARING CONDOM CAN SOME EJACULATION DELAYING SPRAY / GEL ON PENIS.

Brief Answer:
no jelly will not be harmful to penis

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for follow up.

I can understand your confusion. I have mentioned not to apply gel directly on penis when condom is not used due to chances of getting less or no sensation and excitement by anesthetic effect of lignocaine. Yes you are right that when penis enters the anus lignocaine will come in contact with penis but no need to worry as Lignocaine is not harmful.

Yes you can use spray or even slight amount of lignocaine before wearing the condom to delay ejaculation.Same effect of delaying ejaculation will be noticed when condom is not used and penis will come in contact with lignocaine applied in anus.

In conclusion lignocaine used as anesthetic as well as lubricant and also as ejaculation delaying agent according to site it applied and amount used.

Hope this answer is helpful.

Feel free to ask if any query is still there.

Brief Answer:
It can cause burning sensation in persons who are sensitive and allergic

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

If you have never used lignocaine in past first you need to check sensitivity of lignocaine. Just apply thin layer of two drops of gel on your penis and wait for two hours. If you do not find any burning or problem, you would not have any problem during use. However if you find itching,redness, rash or burning,wash it immediately with plenty of water and avoid use of lignocaine in future.

If still any query there, I will be happy to answer. If not, you can close the discussion and if feasible give your feedback and rating so I can improve my service. In future you can contact me directly on this site if you wish with this link:
