hi, my father had a turp 4 weeks ago and all seems to be well, other than a stinging sensation when passing urine, he visited his gp who said that there was no signs of infection, the problem is that, can you trust the judgement of a gp who has to refer to the internet to find out what a turp even is, then looks well and truely lost.
i was under the impresion that the stinging should have cleared up by 4 weeks, especially when there are no signs of blood but im no expert.
he tells me that the stinging is no worse now than it was streight after the op. could anyone tell me how long this stinging may last, if its part of the recovery then thats fine, but he's worried that there may be more to it.
also he has not been taking things quite as easy as he should and i wonder if this might be part of the reason, i have suggested that he starts to try some bladder training but am not realy sure if it is safe to.
many thanks, your help would be great |
