Question 6

can an irritation on the urethral opening that causes symptoms such as weak urine flow & incomplete bladder emptying last 2 weeks and longer? i've been told my symptoms could be due to irritation but is it normal for irritation to last this long?

Accepted Answer

Not urethral: In my opinion your symptoms are more characteristic of bladder outlet obstruction or a neurogenic bladder disorder. Urethral irritation usually causes urinary frequency in small amounts often along with burning or other discomfort during urination. A urologist is best to evaluate you and order appropriate testing. If you've already seen one, get a second opinion from another urologist.

Question 8

i am having yellow foamy diarrhea for two days, i no longer have a gall bladder. friday was the last meal i ate. it was high in fats.  will it stop?

Accepted Answer

Bile acid Malabsorpn: Approximately 20 percent of people who have had gallbladders removed will experience recurrent  diarrhea, a condition known as postcholecystectomy diarrhea. without the gallbladder, there is nothing to regulate the amount of bile that passes into the small intestine and the higher amount of bile can create watery stools.Luckily, for most pts. Time will resolve it.
Try small freq. meals, Probiotics

Question 9

does trying to hold my pee longer make my bladder stronger?

Accepted Answer

No: How long you are able to go without passing urine is a function of the size of the bladder and the strength of the sphincter. Avoiding urination can cause dilation of the bladder and can lead to bladder or kidney infections. Your bladder is a muscle but when it is stretched with too much urine it actually is weaker and contracts less efficiently when you do go to urinate.

Question 10

i have bladder sling surgery two and a half weeks ago (retropubic bladder sling). is it okay to stimulate my clitoris yet or do i have to wait longer?

Accepted Answer

Post urethral sling: There is no reason to prevent your "clitoral stimulation" b/c of a sling procedure.
