What To Do If Dildo or Butt Plug Gets Stuck / Lost in Your Ass?

So, you have a butt plug stuck up your ass, and you’re panicking about what to do.

Let’s take a look at some things to try to get the butt plug out safely:

#1: Don’t Panic

First and foremost, if you have a toy stuck in your ass, don’t panic.

I know it might be a hard thing to do knowing that it’s scary as hell, but the more you stress and become tense, the worst this whole experience is going to be.

So, try to relax and don’t freak out anymore. Your body muscles will relax, and it will be easier to get the thing out.

Try breathing exercises if you just can’t seem to relax normally and think about the fact that it’s going to be alright.

While there can be damage done if the butt plug is stuck and has sharp edges that can puncture your bowels, in most cases, these things don’t happen so easily.

#2: Try Moving

Your next step in removing the stuck toy from your ass is to try moving around a bit.

I know you might want to sit and be still and not move as the butt plug is inside you, but the movement is not going to hurt you unless you’re doing something extreme.

As you move around, you’ll be able to focus on other things, which in turn will make you more relaxed, and your muscles won’t be so tense.

And moving around should really get the bowels moving, which should make it easier for you to reach the butt plug.

You see, naturally, our bowels are created to get rid of stuff inside and not hold it or suck it in even deeper inside.

So, your goal here is mostly to get the things moving like they usually would so that you could easily pop the butt plug from your ass.

#3: Get Into Squat Position And Try To Remove It

Now, another thing you should do after you’ve relaxed a bit is to try getting in a position to poop.

Simply sitting down on the toilet might not be the best thing as it’s not the ideal position for pooping in general.

It’s best to be in a squat position with your knees close to your chest. If you have a potty stool, then you can sit on the toilet and use that to put your legs in a squatting position.

If you’re relaxed, the butt plug should come out just like the poop would here, without too much hassle.

You can try pushing it a bit, but don’t go too crazy as you can hurt yourself seriously here.

There is a risk of popping your eardrum if you’re not careful, and you can damage your anus if you’re too harsh with it.

You can try applying a bit more lube, putting a finger inside your anus with it, and seeing if you can reach the butt plug and guide it from your anus.

This whole process might take a while, so don’t rush and be harsh, try to relax and take your time so that you don’t hurt yourself.

#4: Get Help If Nothing Else Works

If the tips I’ve shared with you don’t help and you can’t get the butt plug out or if you can’t even feel it with your finger anymore, it might be the best option to go to the ER.

While I think it’s possible to remove the toy yourself at home, if nothing works, it’s best to be safe.

Don’t wait for too long, no more than a few hours to go to the ER.

If you’ve tried everything you could and no progress, doctors will be able to help you out.

And really, don’t worry about being embarrassed as doctors are used to weird stuff people do, and they’ve probably seen it all.

They’ll be able to quickly help you out, and you’ll probably be home in a few hours, safe and sound!

Butt Plug Safety Precautions To Prevent Accidents From Ever Happening Again

Now, I think it’s important that we talk about how to avoid getting into a situation where a butt plug is stuck in the first place.

Safety should be your number one concern when it comes to anal play, so don’t be foolish and pay attention:

#1: Get A Butt Plug With A Flared Base

The first thing you should be looking at when buying a butt plug is the base.

Your best bet here would be to get the toy with a flared base, which will prevent it from slipping inside.

Now, there are plenty of different sizes of flared bases, so you have to choose the one that works best for you here.

But always choose the butt plug with a solid base or a ring or a cord that allows for easy reach if the butt plug does slip inside you.

If you choose the butt plug with a safe base, your chances of suffering this accident are very minimal.

Also, for this reason, we generally recommend getting good quality butt plugs that were made for this specific purpose instead of using homemade options.

While it might be tempting to save money or not risk your privacy, it’s always best to think about your safety.

#2: Don’t Be Shy On Using The Lube

When it comes to anal play, using lots of lube is very important.

Not only does it make it way more pleasurable and less painful, but it can also be useful if the accident happens as you might have a better chance of sliding the butt plug out.

So, don’t be shy with the lube and make sure you’re using plenty of it when playing with your anus.

You can choose any lube you want, but I think one of the best options is a nice water-based lube, which makes it less messy and sticky.

Otherwise, coconut oil is a great anal lube if you want to save some money and like a tropical scent.

#3: Always Think About Your Security And Follow The Instructions

And the last tip for avoiding the accident with a butt plug is using it according to the instructions.

Listen:

Here, on SexualAlpha, we’re all about being kinky and experimenting with all sorts of sexual things.

It’s great; it makes life more interesting and your sex life way more stimulating.

But safety is very important, so you have to be cautious about how you use the tools that make your sex life so much better.

Always make sure that you’re using the butt plug or any other anal toy according to instructions.

If you’re inserting it, make sure that you’re doing it the right way, don’t insert the base first as this will make the toy stuck for sure!

Be cautious and safe when using a butt plug during sex, and you won’t have to worry about accidents like this happening!

Other People Tips, Experiences & Techniques

And now, let’s take a look at what other people on the internet are saying about their own experiences with butt plugs getting stuck:

All the charming replies you got were well-meaning, however, incorrect.
There are certainly times when one should go to a doctor for removal- when there is blood and it was really not an anal toy.

However, in most cases, a good doctor will remind you that in fact normally things pass DOWN the rectum and your body is in fact built for this.

So, you add a touch of lube, get into a comfy and relaxed squat position, then let your body do what it is best at- slowly bear down as you normally would for a bowel movement. No need to get worked up, especially with a soft silicone toy.

You did great. It isn’t actually Kegels that help with expulsion, if you do it correctly (squatting is best) your abs and some hip flexors actually do the power pushing.

Pro Tip: Whenever getting anal toys to opt for those which have a large outer ring at the end.

This ring prevents the toy from getting lost in your butt. These may a bit more expensive, but they are worth the money.

This is a topic that comes up on this Subreddit about once a week.
Your rectum is indeed made for things to pass down. I suggest that you put a bit of lube in, get into a relaxed squat position and slowly push like you would for a bowel movement.

There is however also a good chance, that it got stuck and will not come out. This happens much more often than you would expect. if it does not come out soon, try to overcome your embarrassment and get to an ER.

The longer you wait, the more at risk you are for developing complications. And next time use one with a broader base and/or tie a rope around the base.

P.S. Do NOT use an enema, it might flush the plug even further up.

Frequently Asked Questions Answered:

And before we end this post, I wanted to quickly touch on a few popular questions that people get about using butt plugs:

1. Are Butt Plugs Safe? Are Butt Plugs Dangerous?

Generally, butt plugs are totally safe to use. But you do have to follow the instructions and make sure that you’re using good quality butt plugs that are designed to go inside your anus for the best experience.

If you’re buying one, it’s always best to go for good nonporous materials like medical-grade silicone, glass, or stainless steel. And always make sure that the flared base is wide enough, and the butt plug won’t slide inside you very easily.

If you’re choosing the good quality thing, you will be just fine using a butt plug, and there is a very small chance of you getting hurt.

But, if you’re trying to play with homemade butt plug alternatives, then you have to be cautious that it might not be safe.

Putting things inside your anus that was not designed to be inserted there might hurt you, get stuck, or simply won’t work that well.

2. Are Glass Butt Plugs Safe?

I’ve seen a lot of people on the internet be concerned with glass sex toys and whether it’s possible for them to break inside you. The short answer to this is no; they won’t break inside you.

Usually, glass sex toys and butt plugs are made out of a safe and sturdy glass which is shatter-proof.

So, you generally don’t have to be scared about glass shattering inside you, as I can see why it would be terrifying.

Now, I have to say that the possibility is always there, especially if you’re using cheap glass sex toys.

If you’re worried about using a glass butt plug, I recommend to always buy the best quality you can find and afford.

Also, it’s important to always take care of your glass toy, don’t go around dropping it like it’s silicone.

While it might not break at the moment, it can weaken the glass over time, and then it will simply break in half.

Another thing you might want to do is always examine the toy before you use it and right after you’ve cleaned it. And, stay away from cheap glass butt plugs from Amazon.

You can never know where they’re coming from and what quality of the materials are they made of, and you don’t want to risk it!

Conclusion

And here you have it – everything there is you need to know about butt plug safety and what to do if it gets stuck!

I know that it might be a terrifying experience, but the best thing you can do if it happens is to relax.

It’s usually not life-threatening, and with a bit of care, you can usually remove the butt plug yourself.

However, it’s important that you do go to the ER if you can’t do it yourself; it will be better for your health if you don’t wait until it’s too late.

And as with most things in life, it’s always best to be careful beforehand to avoid getting into situations like these!
