Hanging troubles and Konakam

Recent issue of a popular weekly in English had an article by a sexologist. He answered a few questions here. Here is a question from a youngster :
" I am 20. I was reluctant to wear underwear during my childhood. As a result, my scrotum has become loose. Now it looks like the scrotum of an aged man. These days,  I am not interested in sex. I experience irritation and pain  around my navel. What should I do to regain a normal structure of scrotum ?
"
The doctor , beating around the bush, asked him to meet a doctor.

I am sure, the right remedy is to wear konakam. He should keep a tight konakam throughout the day.
Just as the onnara (thar) protects women from many of the physical (gynaec) problems, the KONAKAM  protects a man from many such physical problems.
The konakam, if worn properly,  would restore the structure of his scrotum, and would save him from many problems (the kind he experiences now). It would improve his sexual desires and pleasures as well.
It should also be noted that the usual 'brief' or 'trunk'  cannot help you for this problem. These are (may be) tight supporting immediately on wearing, but becomes too loose after sometime, and leaves the scrotum without any support (and hanging).  The best solution thus is to wear a tight konakam, above which you may have a brief or trunk.
This simpleton is not without problems. It's inconvenient to answer the call of the nature.  You would need privacy of a toilet room to open up and do urination, and then retie it.  But, it's worth taking the trouble.

Here is a comment from a lady (Anonymous) on her experience with the thar.  I understand her difficulty. But, let me tell you dear Anonymous, that probably you didn't do that properly (considering  the untieing requirements).  Use of  Pin(s) to keep the thar in position is a bit tricky (and may be that you had the bitter experience). You must also realise that you could manage the day just because it was thar, as it could absorb large flows too (a panty cannot manage such flows).
The best solution, as explained in this blog (with photographs), is the use of knots . The double knot is almost fool-proof, and not sacrificing your convenience.  I suggest you to scan through earlier posts and comments from some of the readers in this blog and learn the technique. 
Please try the knot method, and I hope you'll post a comment in the affirmative. Best wishes.

My husband always comments that my buttocks are not that great and hence interested to know that whether onnara really helps in shaping it. Alternatively I would like to know if I wear tight konakam will it help. Wearing onnara under churidar or saree will have a bulge around my waist and difficult to hide. My husband wears konakam regularly at same is not seen from outside and he is really comfortable wearing it. Can any one really provide an answer

Very good doubt.There are several differences between konakam and onnara.The konakam is a small peice of cloth with three or four inches width in it,s narrowest part and is tied on a thread, so however tightly worn, can exert pressure only in the lower part only, and is worn in the lowest part of abdomen, where as onnara is with a long cloth of 6muzham long and 3-4 muzham wide, worn just below umbilicus and a long madi is tightly worn backwards and tucked in the middle of back. So a tight pressure is applied over the lower abdomen, buttocks and between buttocks, resulting in gradual narrowing of lower abdomen, widening of the buttocks due to the big madi tightly worn between them, moreover the upward pressure exerted by the madi result in tightening of perinneal muscles and prevent uterine prolapse.To reduce the bulge around the waist, wear the mundu without much njori in the waist and gradually reduce your weight by reducing fat and carbohydrates in your diet and doing adequate exercise, which will reduce the fat deposition in the waist and reduce the bulge. Any way for ladies konakam is not at all a substitute for onnara.Wearing onnara just below the underskirt in case of saree or just below the tie of pants of churidar will reduce bulge

Grandma's remedies

For those who are scared of darkening their waist lines (on wearing tight onnara), here is a home remedy.
1. Smear (massage) oil around the waist line, before bathing. If you are used to applying oil on your head, then it's quite simple ... After massaging the oil on your head (and hair), continue massaging your waistline around (to smear a bit of oil there).
2. Take a small piece of lemon ( നാരങ്ങ ). Rub it around the waist (where there is dark shade). But, make sure you do not wash it off immediately. Let it be there for sometime.

3. The best of all ... AloeVera. Apply Aloevera cream (juice) on the waist lines and dark areas. That's a great remedy !

Tight issues and dark skin

Many readers have pointed out the need to keep the thaar 'not too tight'.  That's right.
Infact, the degree of tightness required differs from the level and nature of activities you are engaged in.  If you are to move around with brisk bodily movements (for household tasks), then 'too tight' will be inconvenient. On the otherhand, if you are leisurely at home, mostly sitting, then a 'fairly tight' thaar would be better.  For travelling, moderate tightness is required. Too loose state would not help at all.
Let me also invite your attention to some of the comments that, tight thaar would darken the skin around the waist. This is not fully true.
Tying the paavaada tightly around the waist darkens the skin. But, a wider band (stiched so) paavaada, tied with moderate tightness would not pose this problem.  When the thaar is worn, make sure that the waist line has a thicker edge, with a few wrinkled (folded) edge. This would evenout the pressure and the skin is not strained. This will certainly keep the darkening away.
Use of talcum powder (Deo type) would anyway be helpful, though not for darkening problem.

Now, again on the tightness issue :  The knot technique automatically controls the tightness. You need to control the initial tightness (when worn). Rest is taken care by the double knot method. Please go to the earlier posts in this blog, where this is explained.
I hope I am clear to you.
