Posted , 7 users are following.

I had a simple prostatectomy five week ago. A week after the surgery the nurse took out the Foley catheter and I wasn't able to pee on my own. The second catheter was place using a cystoscop and a guidewire to insert it, lots of pain.

I had the catheter for another 7 days. They took the catheter out but the flow is very week and have razor blade pain in my penis after peeing also I have lots of discomfort and pain in my scrotum. Also I have the sensation to move a bowel every time I peeing. Also some feeling hard around the belly button incision

I do have an app. next week for an urine flow test and ultrasound on my scrotum. The Doc. told me that i have to be patient until the surgery is healing...

Did anybody have these kind of symptoms?
