Urine retention

Question

Urine retention

Asked for Male, 56 Years

Earlier symptoms started with UTI, as a precaution we did sonography. Sonography shows the prostate enlargement to 34 ml( mild as per doc). Visited a urologist, he prescribed 5 days antibiotics for UTI and 30 days meds for prostate (silodol D) On the 2nd day of medication, urine retention happened , we rushed to the hospital and got a caterer inserted . Urine retention was 1400 ml which was huge. As a follow up urologist suggested to do MRI and uro dynamic study. Did MRI, visit a neurologist according to him everything was normal. Did uro dynamic study, results show normal, doc after procedure removed the catheter. Suggested due to medicines the retention might have occurred. Same day evening again urine retention happened, rushed to hospital and got a catheter inserted again. Now I am clueless what action to do next.

Does your father have diabetes? He needs to be properly evaluated. It's possible that he might have developed a neurogenic bladder due to cystopathy. Infection also can lead to retention in case of benign prostatic enlargement and an obstructive prostate can give rise to infection forming a dangerous interplay between the two. Also a properly conducted Urodynamics study is crucial for interpretation.

Next Steps

consult an urologist for proper evaluation and management.
