So earlier this year I had urethral stricture that I needed repaired. I guess it had started a while before that when I felt that I was unable to relieve myself completely. Then I started wetting the bed, still didn't see a doctor. Then December 2013 rolls around and I get a bladder infection that hurt bad. I get a kidney ultrasound after the infection clears that hydro nephrosis (fluid backup into the kidneys). A trip to the urologist and an in office scopy procedure reveals a stricture that could not be open with dilation. Like a week later I'm at the hospital for a day surgery to repair it. I get put under and wake up sleepy , but the pain I'd felt in my lower abdomen where the bladder was backed up was gone. Had a Foley catheter in my penis. That felt really weird. Apparently the stricture was worse then the doctor originally thought so in stead of 3 days with the catheter I got 8. It was so hard to move around with that thing anything that pulled on the catheter hurt or irritated. It hurt to sleep because the bag hung off the side of my bed but it felt like it was constantly tugging. The prescription pain meds did very little for this pain. By the sixth night I ended up sleeping in the chair instead cause was tired of the pain. This was also when my erections returned. Was sleeping and woke to a sharp pain and realized it was because I was getting an erection. The last night I was up basically all night because when I was awake I could control getting an erection a lot better. Let me tell you that thing basically flies out when the doctor removes it. That didn't hurt me but certainly felt weird. Well after 8 days of suffering through all that I could pee strong and actually relieved myself. I had apparently stretched my bladder with this problem for so long the urologist said it may never return to normal so now when I go empty for me is like 100 to 200ml.
So if you have any of those problems :fullness/bloating in the lower abdomen right above the groin, slow stream, straining, high blood pressure, bedwetting, bladder infections, maybe check with your doctor. He only became so concerned with me since men get bladder infections so infrequently that its usually brought on by another problem. Trust me its not fun especially with a catheter but I am sure glad I got it fixed
 
I am glad to hear that the procedure went well, a Foley's cath, is the one where they inflate a small bubble with saline, which anchors the catheter in the bladder. Usually after 8 days, you would expect the patient to have some form of infection. I am happy this did not occur.
Thanks for posting an informative thread.
 
Well they had pumped me full of antibiotics during the procedure so I'm sure that helped lower the chances of infection
 
It's maybe a little surprising that that they did not change the catheter, but I guess it was like a stent for your urethra to stay propped open while you healed. Good for you. Smart thing to do. Often these thing come on so slowly, and are incremental and guys just adjust without realizing how bad it is getting, or how far it has gone.
 
Thanks for the info. As someone with a history of kidney stones, I know the feeling of not being able to pee properly. One time I had a ureteric stent for almost two weeks until they could book a surgery. I think it did some permanent damage.
 
Well it was originally going to be like 3 days. Well after the surgeon got in there he realized it was worse then he thought from his previous exam. He also found a second one behind the first one that wasn't nearly as bad but needed fixed. It was an ordeal but so glad I fixed it. When I go now it is actually a strong stream and I actually have to point it, before it was so weak that it flowed without and direction or was so slow that I had to sit to go. It's also helped with my ejaculations. Feel like there is more now when I do and it doesn't just dribble out
 
I found the pictures the doctor took with the scope when he was inside my urethra. It's weird looking. You can definitely tell in the one picture that the one stricture was bad. Doctor told me he was surprised I could go at all.
 
Did he tell you what caused it? I know that it is sometimes caused by radiation for prostate cancer.
 
He did not. I guess one time a while back before it got real bad last year like in 2012 I saw my regular doctor and he checked my prostate it was fine. The urologist said that the structure was either genetically that way or way caused by trauma to the area. I would imagine being hit in the groin in a certain way might cause damage farther back then the urethra that is part of the penis that is exposed. Cause my structure was way in the back where it starts to curve up toward the bladder
