Cane marks

What is the best technique for rubbing or feeling with the fingers the flaming high-ridged tramlines of sorely suffering skin right after a caning that will actually soothe the striped cheeks and alleviate the sting without increasing the irritation? I have seen spanking models in caning videos simply their press their hands to their cheeks, or cup and slightly lift with a cheek in each hand, while others fervently rub away. Objectively, which method is the most effective in immediately lessening the pain, if that is at all possible? What do the experienced experts say?

There's a line that I want to use in a story.

"There's nothing like snorting cocaine... Wait, that's wrong. There's nothing like snorting cocaine off the ass of a high class call girl and... no, that's not it. There's nothing like snorting cocaine off the ass of a high class call girl guiding your nose down a line that you just caned into her ass."

No, I don't know how I came up with that line, but I do know that I don't have the rest of story outlined. Who's the snorter? What role do drugs play in the story? Did the girl like it? Is it set in the 80s or present day? No idea - which is why that story isn't written.

Still, that's a great mental image. Someone living the life of opulence, casually indulging in drugs and having hired girls at his beck and call.

Why the 80s? It could be set just as well in the seventies or sixties, though if I was writing it I might set it as far back as the forties - it has that sort of film noir, jazz age feel to it...

There is nothing that lessens the burn of the cane. Six, twelve or even twenty four of the best strokes on a bare bottom lights a fire that ever so slowly burns. The burn starts from the moment the first stroke of the set strikes home, it is doubled or even trippled when successive strokes strike home on the same spot. The third set is often the worst as the strokes overlap marks and welts already raised and still burning from previous strokes. By the time the fourth set is finished the penitent boy is in total agony.
I know full well what Titch goes through each time his mistress canes him, having been subject to her tender mercies myself.

Supermario, Are you saying no amount of rubbing helps? Then why do we see people always doing it in spanking videos that feature caning scenes? And thank you for your answer.

No not what I am saying, rubbing helps in that it is psychosomatic, the action of rubbing helps at the time, hence the reason why disciplinarians forbid rubbing. The burning sensation continues to rise for a period of time after the caning. Forbidding the punished boy or girl from rubbing heightens the burning prickly sensation. nerves screaming in outrage at the punishment, knowing you face further punishment should you disobey your tormentor, apologies your disciplinarian, increases the punishment so much more. Oh god I hate being caned!!!!!!!!!!!!

So rubbing does help or at least supplies some comfort on a psychological level. My original question asked what is the most effective rubbing technique to help deal with the sheer agony of a caning. I have never felt the cane, being an older Yank, but from what I've read about caning, I understand that the burning throbbing pain can last for a couple of days followed by a great deal of (some say exquisite) tenderness. It is difficult to sit down and if some strokes have landed up in the juncture of thigh and cheek, then walking may also pose a challenge. In your experience, is there an effective method you have used to alleviate the discomfort during the immediate aftermath; that is if you were permitted to do so? I have seen one spanking model called Anita (Xerotics/SpankingOnLine)begin by just pressing her hands to her red-striped bottom to hold it gently for a little while. She then feels the heat with the other side of her hands followed by a cupping and lifting motion with a cheek in each hand and finally she rubs vigorously across both cheeks with one hand and then the other, She then repeats the process, except this time she starts by cupping a cheek in each hand and slightly pulling them apart and then she searches for the individual welts and once found, she rubs her fingers over the their length which spans the full width of both her cute cheeks. Is what she is doing just something that comes natural? Is she being told to do it this way by the video's director, or has she, as an experienced spanking model picked up some valuable trick of the trade? The more I learn about the world of spanking and caning, the more curious I become.

I dare say the only way to experience the sheer agony experienced by someone being caned is to actually submit yourself to a caning. Be warned however you will regret your decision at the time and for a few days afterwards.
My last caning left me bruised for over a week, 10 days in fact and I did not ask for it. My Top decided I had been sufficiently naughty as to warrant a caning and that was followed by a lengthy session with her Ebony hair brush. The experience was sheer agony. If I never get caned again it will be too soon.

When I think of widely used cocaine I think 80s, but you're right, it could be much sooner. I recently got around to watching the movie Bright Young Things 9an adaptation of Evelyn Waugh's novel Vile Bodies) and one of the funniest parts of that movie was an old guy who mistook Coke for snuff. And then there's the most famous literary cocaine addict of them all - Sherlock Homes (who used to shoot up with cocaine and heroin).

But the image of someone surrounded by decadent luxury lining up some coke on cane mark that he's just inflicted on call girl's bottom, it's one that I'd love to use but I'd need the rest of the story to hook it to.

I realize that a caning is a very painful punishment when delivered with thickness and full force and I know that especially in the U.K. the rattan rod is not referred to as the "ultimate implement" without an excellent reason. That is why I admire anyone who can endure its nasty bite and aftermath. This is what fascinates me about the cane....how do you canees do it....how can you possibly take it and in the case of some of the British spanking models like Leia-Ann Woods and Amy Hunter; take it so well. I would love to try it, but as I'm in my 70s, there is not much of a chance of that happening; not in the U.S.A. Now, as I am a child of the 50s decade, I grew up as no stranger to other forms of CP. I was hand spanked up to seven years old, when my Dad purchased a razor strop from a barber shop supply place and for the next ten years, on an almost weekly basis, tanned my bare hide with it. This was in addition to rather frequent paddlings at school and the fact that all my friend's parents had been granted "spanking rights" by my parents. My butt never remained unmarked for very long. Now at my age the spirit may be strong, but the flesh, not so much. The point is: I remain fascinated with everything to do with spanking, and the cane because it is so extreme without necessarily being brutal.
