General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,

As per my long-term surgical experience, the issue sounds with internal blood clot retention in the bladder post transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) procedure in most instances with some cases of urethral narrowing due to inflammation at the prostatic urethra.

In my clinic, I recommend the patient to undertake an ultrasound of the pelvis with the future need of cystoscopic bladder wash according to the report.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
