Hi,
Saw the reports uploaded and feel strongly that your father could be having retention of urine due to either bladder outlet obstruction (cause may be stricture of urethra or contracture of bladder neck post op TURP or rarely regrowth of prostate) or more likely he may be having an underactive bladder muscle. If the former, he may need evaluation by urethral calibration / cystoscopy, and proceed accordingly. If on the other hand there is no mechanical obstruction, he may be having no power in the detrusor muscle of the bladder and he is unable to push out urine the way otherwise healthy individuals would do, and some urine would leak in what we call overflow incontinence. This may need to be confirmed by a urodynamic evaluation. As you seem to be staying in vicinity of Lucknow, SGPGIMER is a very good facility and you can approach them for further evaluation. Hernia should ideally be tackled after ruling out obstruction as a recurrence of hernia is a significant possibility if the patient continues to strain to void urine after the hernia operation. The renal function also needs to be re-evaluated.
Hope I have been of assistance.
Regards.
