-The practice of tucking, where genitalia such as the penis and scrotum are concealed to be less visible under clothing, is an important aspect of gender expression for transgender people, drag performers, and others who wish to adjust their appearance. While tucking can contribute to a sense of gender affirmation and self-confidence, it also carries potential health risks, such as skin irritation, painful friction, and in severe cases, disruption of blood circulation and permanent damage to the genital organs.
-The use of specially [https://en.transundeez.com/product-categorie/compression-panties/ designed compression underwear] can help in safe tucking by providing support without exerting excessive pressure. It is essential to use the correct size, take regular breaks, and care for the skin to avoid complications. Medical guidance and advice are recommended, especially for those considering long-term tucking or experiencing issues. Adhering to safe tucking practices is not only crucial for physical health but also for the well-being and comfort of those who embrace this practice as part of their self-expression.
