What Does Incomplete Voiding Of Urine After Posterior Repair Surgery Indicate?

I m a 35 year old female who recently had a posterior repair for rectocele 6 days. I have not been able to empty out my bladder completely. Therefore, I ve had a catheter since the day after my surgery. My doctor says she has no clue why I m not able to urinate on my own. Do you have any ideas what it could be? Could it be the anesthesia or pain meds I was on? Please help.

Hi,

Once ultrasound of kidney, ureter, bladder should be done, if not, find the cause. It will help to diagnose the condition.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
