I recently have a girlfriend, when we meet we are cuddling and kissing for like 3 to 5 hours, during this time I have an erection (no sex yet). Feels awesome but the problem is after she has left, I feel like I've been kicked in the nuts and I have a weird abdominal pain which is hard to describe. The pain remains for like 1,5-2,5 hours. It's not terrible but it's quite unpleasant. I think it's caused by being erect for too long. What can I do about it?
PS this has nothing to with circumcision

Ha ha. I remember these days in the dim and distant past. The long period of engorgement gave me the same feeling, but I found it pleasantly unpleasant if that makes sense. Enjoy sex, but only when you are both ready. There is no pressure, go with the flow.
This is epididymal hypertension, sometimes called "blue balls".
You are exactly right, it is caused by being erect for a long period of time without release. It is not dangerous but can be unpleasant.
You can help to relieve it if you masturbate as soon as you can. If you have an understanding girlfriend, you might ask if she minds watching while you do it.
That's caused by the sexual tension of being erect for a long time and needing the release of an orgasm. Once you get to know your girl better you could get her to wank you off and you could finger her clitoris to give her release too.
Agree with the previous replies and I remember it well. Won't cause you any harm but it's not a good state to go home in. Just make sure you masturbate to get rid of the tension.
Sounds to me like classic blue balls and definitely something a bit of 'alone time' will relieve. Keep an eye on it and always consult with a doctor if it persists or simply if you're worried.
I used to have the same thing constantly before we began to have sex I would masturbate a couple hours before being with her and didn’t notice the pain so I’d try that.
