How long does it take for urine leakage to clear up after minimally invasive surgery for prostate enlargement

Leakage after minimally invasive prostate enlargement surgery usually clears up in about a month, or in some cases, it does not heal on its own and requires medical attention.

However, there are some patients who have permanent sphincter muscle damage, or have been functionally incompetent before the operation, the postoperative leakage of urine will not be able to self-heal, at this time, you should go to the hospital for appropriate treatment. Leakage of urine after minimally invasive surgery for prostate enlargement is recommended to go to the hospital in time for review, and choose the appropriate treatment under the guidance of professional doctors.
