Sorry to hear this.
How long was your catheter in place.
Before your catheter was removed was it clamped off to give your
bladder the chance to full with urine. Then unclamped to let it drain into the foley catheter bag???
Sometimes when this is not done it either leads to incontinence or the inability to urinate.
This should be a temporary problem however if this has been going on for several days and you have already been discharged from the hospital you need to contact your doctor.
If you are still in the hospital please make your nurse aware of this problem.

If you are already home. Something to consider.
Are you having burning on urination?
Frequent urination yes even the incontinence.
these can be syptoms of a Urinary tract infection which whould not be unheard given everything you have been thru.

Please follow up with your doctor.

All the best for a speedy recovery and the resolution to this problem Source(s): ER RN
Since you will be incontinent initially, come prepared for the trip home. I have come to believe that I never needed an actual "diaper". Instead, there are pads held in place with straps over the hips, that provide plenty of absorbency, are easier to use, and look more like a "codpiece" and thus much more masculine! What can be done to promote later continence?
Do Kegel exercises frequently, such as groups of ten, six to ten times per day. The exercise should feel the same as what you do to interrupt the flow when urinating. There is some disagreement over whether Kegels should be done with the catheter in place. I believe the large majority believes in doing them with the catheter.

Walk as much as much as you can, as early as you can, without getting overly tired
