I had bladder surgery 2 days ago for the removal of a tumor. I have had bladder cancer and this small tumor reappeared and the doc removed it, but had to put a stent in. I really do not know what a stent is and will it be painful to be removed in 3weeks? Thanks
A stent is a tube that acts similarly to a duct that the organ makes or has naturally. The stent is a plastic tube that is inserted in place of the natural tube per se',. it is not a bad thing and painful no not at all, since you would be under i=f they ever removed.

Well,
If I am not mistaking stent is like a small tube that connects two parts of your urinary canal to ensure that you have a proper urination. The balder surgeries are not simple and you need time to recover from them, and in order not to have ore complication you need to have this inserted. How long have you been having this problem? Have you had any problems with urinations after the surgery? Are you able to drink and eat normally? I don’t think that the removal will be simple but the doctors will ensure that you don’t have too much pain. I hope this helped a bit.

All the best,
Nelie
