Which cushion: donut vs wedge?

Post by User-CPPS »

Hello there, since my CPPS backfired after years of silence for a year now I am searching for a cushion for prolonged sitting :boom: .

Which cushion is "better":

wedge:

or

donut:

Or should I buy something else?

Thanks for the help.
Age: 41 Onset Age: 14, 22 got really bad
Symptoms: pain and discomfort perineum, a little bit while sitting in the right half of the scrotum. Sometimes dual stream while urinating. While ejaculating, not all shoots outside, some stays and flows outside with time (Without medication very painful).
Diagnosis: have seen several urologists in my life, have done any possible and pain creating diagnosis could not help me ever. Life was hopeful after googling the Stanford/Wise-Anderson Protocol in early 2008, then every ache started making sense./ Hemorrhoids: they stress my prostate when I have a Hemorrhoid flare!
Helped By: Physical therapy, keeping myself warm, hatha yoga, stretching, walking, relaxation, distraction, Tadalafil 5 mg
Worsened By: Constipation, Fear or OCD "flare up", sitting and not doing any kind of "motion", too much tension in media or life, caffeine and acidy food
Prior Treatments: Antibiotics, Tamsulosin, Lyrica, Gabapentin, Tylenol

The wedge looks like a better design, but it's cheaper just to make your own.

Thanks for the link.

What do you mean with better design? Better looking or better for CPPS? I am curious because on your website you suggest a donut cushion and not a wedge cushion.

They are both donut-type cushions with gaps below the perineum. Neither is a wedge.

I don't benefit from the cushions, they feel too soft....Pain is very bad
Maybe I need a cushion that is filled with air...

Maybe we should get rid of cushions!

Keeps us focussing on the syndrome.
