Introductions discussion

Hello! I’m curious if anyone has detailed instructions for cleaning a male chastity device. My wife and I have tried being chaste twice, each time lasting seven days. We both ended up with bacterial infections, though they cleared up after visiting the doctor. The CB 3000 was very comfortable. Last night, I tried the Jail Bird; it felt quite heavy, like it was cutting off blood flow to my penis and wouldn’t settle down. Does this mean I need a larger ring? I can fit my finger under it up to the first knuckle. Any help on these matters would be greatly appreciated. I’d really like to go a month or two without taking it off, or is that just fantasy? Thanks again.
