Blood in urine again?

User

Hi there my husband is in his 4th week of recovery from a radical prostatectomy. He's had his catheter out for over a week now, he's still injecting himself to prevent blood clots and he's still got his sexy stocking on. He's just started noticing small (slightly less than pea sized) clots in his urine. Anyone else experienced this? Is it normal. He seems not to be too worried and he's upped his fluids and also he's not feverish or in any pain.

Sounds fairly normal - probably just scabs coming away from the internal joins.

Bleeding is quite normal for quite a while post op. I even had pure blood at one point because I over stretched my bladder ! Clots are a far better scenario
