Richard,
Management of the catheter was not a major problem for me. What little irritation that developed I treated with an antibiotic salve.
Good luck with your surgery and keep us posted.

Richard,
I had the RP 3 years ago. The catheter was just a bother because it was there. No real pain or irritation.
Best Wishes,

Re: Catheter Management
Dear Richard:
My husband had his prostate removed in July 2003. The catheter was just a nuisance, he did not have any irritation, pain, etc. Try not to worry about this. From what I have read the robiotic surgery is better than what my hubby had (manual surgery).
God bless and take care.
