Suggest A Treatment For Swollen Prostrate And Distended Bladder
Have extremely distended bladder. Swollen prostate caused build up over months until ER drained out over 3,500 cc's. Dr did "rotorutter" prostate surgery. Two weeks after surgery still can not go. Bladder two damaged. I cath very 5 hours. Are there any surgeries that can be done on the bladder, or electrical stimulation that would work for this kind of problem?? MC

Hi,
I cannot say in your particular case, but generally:
1) it needs to heal and
2) it isn't the slowest region to heal generally a month is a long time and the inflammation gets better by then.
Continuous cathether for a while is often an option just to let it heal up.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
