phil,
I had TURP performed on Dec.4, 2015. Had some bleeding and after a couple of months passed some large blood clots. By the 3rd month my stream became weaker and weaker. I went back to surgery on May 13, 2016. When he scoped me he found a lot of scar tissue. My doctor said some folks are more prone to scaring than others. He used the laser and made a couple of incisions and the scar tissue "pulled away". It is now June 26, and I am doing well. I am just anxious and worried that the scar tissue could grow back. As a defense, I take Serrapeptase, which is an enzyme that may help with scarring after surgery. Good news is that right now, I'm fine!

I'm 62 years of age, and I told the uro that I really did not want to have to undergo this ever again. He told me that a TURP done properly should last the rest of my life. Hope he's right. Good luck.

My surgeon told me he made two small incisions and the spider-like scar tissue "pulled back" and provided a better opening at the bladder neck. Some of us are more prone to developing scar tissue. The danger inherent in removing obstructions of scar tissue is that the removal can cause further scar growth.
I take "serrapeptase" for scar tissue and IT WORKS! The other herb which is supposed to be at the top of the list to help reduce scar tissue is "thiosinaminum", known for its ability to dissolve scars formed anywhere in the body. You can order this from Amazon.

Thanks scurry. Already taking Serrapeptase. The MRI says it's scar tissue from Prostatitis. Called my Dr. up, I love him, but he says he can't remove scar tissue. Could this be scar tissue from my surgery ( Turp )? Iv'e had it for 61/2 years and it is driving me crazy.

Most likely it is. I'm eager to try the thiosinaminum. Google search "homeopathic remedies for urethral stricture treatment". Hang in there....there's always a good bourbon and a cigar around the corner.
