Patient's question:
13 days after surgery, I urinate every half hour or hour. The urine flows smoothly and is clear in color, but it has become slightly red at the end and there is a dripping phenomenon again. After a few minutes, it drips on my pants. Is this normal? Can it be cured?Doctor's answer:
This needs to consider the fact that the bladder's urination function has not fully recovered after surgery. At the same time, the prostate fossa may be infected to a certain extent, which can cause slight hematuria to reappear at the end of urination. A urinalysis should be repeated to check for infection. Drink more water regularly and strengthen Kegel exercises to improve the normal metabolism of urine. For patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If left untreated, it can affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and maintain a regular lifestyle, avoiding prolonged sitting.
