Suggest Alternative To Self Catheterization
I have problems going for a pee. In 2011 I couldn t pee for 4 and half days was in hospital and catheterised for a week. Since then it keeps happening. I got emergency keyhole surgery for suspected appendixistis but it was burst cysts so they had to remove the fluid this was three weeks ago and I have had three catheters in since then and this one I have in is in for two weeks. I got told I would get the sensation of needing to go for a pee as they gave me a tap catheter but I m not getting this sensation but I m in so much pain. The doctor wants to show me self catheterization but I don t want this at 22

Thanks for asking in healthcaremagic forum
Sometimes in neurological problems, catheter may be needed. You you allow urine to accumilate, infection may occur. So, please follow your doctor's instructions for relief. All the best.
