A member asked:
I use a catheter once a week for dilation, randomly (not often) i will see a very small amount of diluted blood after urination, is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal: Quite common and not unexpected to notice a small amount of blood from penis or with first part of urination after any urethral dilation related to stretching and some mild tearing of the scar tissue.
