I had urethral stricture surgery and am having bleeding with the catheter still in. what should i do?

Call doctor: Anytime you have surgery and have a question about your post surgical course, call your doctor. I much rather someone " bother" me with a questions that turns out to be nothing than have someone not want to "bother" me and it turn out to be serious. You might be bleeding from the surgery or irritation form the catheter...Either way it is better that your surgeon know about this.
