Stricture Urethra
A urethral stricture is an abnormal narrowing of the urethra that can make it difficult to pass urine. This condition is often uncomfortable and sometimes painful. If left untreated, it can lead to serious complications.
Symptoms
- Weak urine stream or straining to urinate
- Frequent urination and urinary urgency
- Pain or burning during urination
- Inability to fully empty the bladder
- Recurring urinary tract infections
- Blood in the urine
Optical Internal Urethrotomy (OIU) and Buccal mucosal graft urethroplasty (BMG) surgeries are performed to treat stricture urethra.
