Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Is Urinary Incontinence Common After A Colonoscopy?
I had a colonoscopy on a Tuesday and know seem to be wetting the bed at night. I was reported with a clean colonoscopy and no issues, I have no pain/ discomfort, discolored urine etc. I had high anxiety before the procedure but it is over now. It seems to be getting better ( it is day 2 after). Is this common and will it go away? Embarrassing
Discolored urine may not be due to colonoscopy and it is not common but it is unlikely happening because of colonoscopy, it could be due to less water intake or may be due to some infection, increase the water intake and it will come around.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Akhtarhusain, General & Family Physician
