Is It Normal To Bleed After Having Catheter Removed?
I have a catheder at the moment. When it was inserted again, some blood came out. Now the urine is clear. In teh blood were some string like objects, dark red, about 3 inches long. I wonder what that is. AFter the bleeding went away, so did these strings

it could happen in case of a traumatic catheterization, the strings are just clots of blood in string shape due to catheter. nothing to worry about if it's clear now
