Why My Penis Has Been Dripping Throughout The Day?
My penis has been dripping throughout the day for the last couple months. There is not any itching or burning. I have been on percocet since December due to having surgery on a broken leg. What could be causing this drip?

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Probably when you broke your leg at that time there must have been some spinal injury as well, in the low back area (Lumbo-Sacral region of the spine). This must have compressed the pair of nerves coming out of the spinal cord and supplying the urinary bladder, resulting in incontinence.
You need to consult an urologist who will have to do tests including MRI, if indicated to find out the cause.
Wish you all the best.
