Figging

Figging is a BDSM practice in which a piece of fresh ginger root (usually peeled and cut into the shape of a butt plug) is inserted into the anus or vagina to create an intense, burning, and tingling sensation. The sensation is temporary, natural, and often used as a form of punishment, humiliation, or sensual pain play.
