A member asked:
Can you tell me how i could recover from repeat sticture urethera?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Here are some...: To recover and heal permanent is almost impossible although various surgical corrections (open urethroplasty or urethrotomy or urethral dilation) produce wide variations of durability in outcome, i.e., from months to years, occasionally up to 10-15+ years. Nonetheless, it's useful to know scar is forever but with wide degree of cicatrization. So, ask the treating urologist for individual detail...
