Chastity and orgasm denial discussion

My spouse and I are just beginning to try chastity again. After spending 11 days confined according to our rules, last night was supposed to be the time for a full release. The previous attempt ended with me refusing to re-enter after my release had been granted. I stayed out overnight but asked for two extra days in by morning. As expected, I never actually went back into the device, which effectively put an end to our playtime. I was concerned about history repeating itself, so I hoped to be locked up again before bedtime regardless of how I felt. Unfortunately, while cleaning out the dust collectors at work yesterday, some sawdust likely got inside my cage. By the time I arrived home, there was a spot on my helmet that had been rubbed raw. Prioritizing health and well-being, I wasn’t locked last night. This morning it is still quite sore when I attempt to put back in the CB6KS. So currently, I am not wearing it. Fingers crossed this heals up soon. We do possess another cage with a more open design, but its ring diameter is too small for anything longer than a few hours of wear. I might need to ask my wife if I can use that one when I get home to keep the routine going.
