Novices and newbies discussion

whenever i get an erection while locked up, it hurts a lot and distracts me. plus, i wake up almost every hour because of the pain. I suspect it’s a sizing issue since my cage seems a bit too big for me. I picked up another one that is slightly smaller, but since I’m on a budget, it has to come from China, so expect about two months for delivery. Does anyone have any tips to ease this in the short term? Other than ordering more gear and waiting forever for it?
