A member asked:
Is the penis pulled to reattach the urethra to the bladder during prostectomy? i have painful penis in a.m. and all day soreness.tylenol&percs no work
A doctor has provided 1 answer
After Prostatectomy: During surgery to remove the prostate, the bladder neck and urethra above the sphincter are sewn together. Reduction in penile length post-op comes partly from contraction in this area. Nerve sparing or resection results in decreased blood flow to the penis. The former eventually resolves, the latter rarely so. If you are recently post-op (< 3 mos) then nsaids like aleve (naproxen) should help. Ask your md.
