Usually, painful urination can be recovered in about 1-3 days after the catheter is removed, but the exact time is related to the time the catheter was placed and whether the urinary tract is infected. If the catheter is catheterized during a non-urinary procedure, the retention time is usually relatively short and the recovery time from urinary pain is about 1 day after the catheter is removed. If you are catheterizing after a urinary tract surgery or in the presence of prostatic hyperplasia, the urinary catheter usually needs to be left in place for 3-7 days, and due to the irritation of the urethra by the urinary catheter, the duration of the painful urination will be extended after the removal of the catheter, which may be around 2-3 days. Secondly, if the urinary catheter is left in for too long, or if you do not pay attention to hygienic care after the catheter is removed, it may cause urinary tract infection and cause pain, which requires timely anti-infection treatment and usually recovers in about 1 week. After removal of the urinary catheter, it is necessary to observe whether the urination is smooth, if there is a situation that can not urinate, it is necessary to re-intubate the treatment. It is recommended to drink more water and exercise more often. If the pain is unbearable or worsens, it is recommended to go to the urology department of the hospital in time.
