Diagnosed with urethral stricture 27 need some advice

when I was born I had major hypospadia reconstructive surgery of my whole urinary canal I never seem to have an issue with this until about three years ago I started noticing my urine stream going left and right spraying everywhere fast forward to years later I’ve noticed I was having constant urination painful urination as well as frequent urination and urine leakage I went to urologist he performed a prostate exam check to rule out cancer then a bladder ultrasound as well as a kidney ultrasound everything came back fine fast forward I couldn’t P one morning I pushed hard and thought something tear and was able to urinate again two days later cutting Germany went to the hospital for bladder but before they put a catheter in me I was able to urinate by myself without it I waited hours at the hospital they ended up performing a urethrogram which was an x-ray of the inside of my penis shaft with a small catheter which was very painful to me they discovered I had a stricture that was really tight now my question is this how come I was able to urinate without having a catheter put in me after this procedure I went home and I have had a normal urine stream better than I’ve had in years why was that if they didn’t even do a dilation on me anyways I’m going back on December 14th for follow-up with my new urologist are most likely looking into doing dilation because the type of surgery scares the hell out of me
