Last week I had a urinary catheter placed during surgery (and removed during recovery). The procedure went well, and my recovery and healing is doing very well, but I am having bouts of painful urination. I dread peeing, and from time to time I have sudden attacks of burning sensations in my penis - even though my bladder isn't full.
What experiences have others had with this medical procedure? I intend to call the doctor's staff in the morning to discuss this but it's good to get a sampling of others' experiences.
For the record, I am not feverish and I don't observe any discharge. There was a small amount of blood for the first day, but I haven't seen any since. I am drinking lots of cranberry juice.
