In this condition, patients are unable to empty their bladder completely, leading to frequent urinary infection and bleeding. Severe cases include; extreme slow urination, formation of stones in the bladder and kidney damage.
This process takes about 1 hour. At first, some kind of spinal anesthesia is induced. In this condition, you do not feel any pain even when you are not forced to a subconscious state. Sometimes general anesthesia is also used by surgeons, depending on the mental state of their patients.
