A scrotal ring circles the sack only, leaving the penis free. The testicles sit forward or hang lower depending on width and tightness. Some people stack a scrotal ring with a cock ring. Some wear it alone for the tug when they walk.

Metal rings need the same careful dressing as any solid ring: sack first through the bore, adjustments after. Stretchy rings roll on and are kinder for a first try. Heat and exercise swell tissue. A ring that felt friendly in a cool room can bite after a run.

Hair pinches. So does a ring that sits on the ridge of a testicle rather than around the bundle. If one testicle slips out and the ring cinches the skin, sit down and work it off with lube. Do not stand and panic-pull.
