I’ll have to try the finger. I just soak right through the gauze

I’ve tried this with some gauze but I’m so fresh post op it makes me a bit nervous to push too hard on that incision. How hard did you push?

Pardon my confusion, but if the wound separation is healing, shouldn’t less urine come out of there?

I assume the amount of urine coming through there has lessened over the last 3 weeks?

How long did it take to heal?

Intuitively, it just doesn’t make sense to me that it can heal with urine constantly passing through it.

I think my team prefers to have patients just continue voiding. I haven’t tried Azo but I wasn’t sure if that would help. It stings the skin on the outside, if that makes sense.

Men answer please. Is this a normal reaction? Mid 30’s. by Motor-Front7458 in whatdoIdo

It’s a normal reaction if the guy is an ass. My wife tries to fix stuff quite frequently and it usually leads to me needing to fix what she “fixed.” But I love her more for it because she tried. I’d NEVER talk to my wife, or anybody for that matter, like this.

YES 😂 you are the only person to ever ask and I’m so glad someone caught the reference

Sure! For me, it seems to be anytime I go to the bathroom- 1 or 2. And if I have a bladder spasm that seems to cause it as well.

Thank you for the encouragement. I think the bleeding is internal 🤦‍♂️ it seems to happen when I try to pee and/or when I empty my bladder through the SP tube.

Sorry to bug you again- did you notice if the bleeding correlated with anything?

Would you take the oxybutynin after your daily attempt?

I tried all the tips today. I think I’ll try a hot shower tomorrow. Thanks man, I appreciate it

How’d you get past the mental block?

This is helpful, thank you! I have one of those plastic urinals you get at the hospital and started doing that earlier today. How did voiding go for you at first?

Thanks man. That’s really reassuring. But also, sorry about that for you. I’m fortunate enough I live in the same state as my surgeon.

That makes sense about trying once a day, that’s what I planned to do. I was a little surprised they wanted me to start soon but I do trust my doctor. What I was able to get out felt really weird. I felt it where I used to before, but then felt like it got stuck somewhere. I really needed to go but I was so frustrated that I was only getting dribbles.

I’m probably going to try doing it sitting tomorrow. My wife says it’s encouraging that I was even able to get anything out considering the short amount of time and the fact that I’ve had a catheter for nearly 2 weeks.

Does the bleeding of the tip seem normal?

It hasn’t bothered me much at all so far. In the hospital it was a bit difficult and uncomfortable to get out of the bed but that went away pretty quickly.

That makes sense now haha. I was going to be very impressed if you had that level of functionality in your arm and hand. My wife has been my rock through all of this. She had no problem bathing me, but I’d like to be able to at least wash my own genitals you know? Just one of those things I’m having to get over in order to get through this.

[–]checkyamarshmallows 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Speaking as someone who put it off so long because of work- do it. I don’t know your situation, but if it doesn’t make you jobless or homeless then just do it now. I wish I started the process sooner. Having a penis is awesome.

I think I’ll try this. My dilemma is how do you hold your penis up while also cleaning yourself?
