I find my pap smear pretty godawful. When I had a bunch of gyne stuff going on a couple of years ago, having people stick their hand up there was getting old real fast. And yet, I like consensual vaginal sex. What’s up with that?
Not to make light of Tuck’s affliction, but did anyone else read the thread title and think it migh be a parody on Harlan Ellison?
The Nigara Falls thing is from an old Three Stooges show. I’m slightly ashamed to know that.
It’s also been done by Abbott and Costello, if you want to appear slightly more edumacated.
I occasionally have problems with swelling and the resulting logjam in my pee-pee. I take Saw Palmetto (available most any pharmacies herbal section) and it tends to bring releif pretty quickly. Good luck, bro.
Which is what I was aiming for.
Men don’t pee. Men piss.
Women pee.
So there’s your problem, Tuckerfan.
In a nutshell.
Peace,

Tuckerfan, has anyone mentioned a TUNA ?
This oddly named procedure might help you and I believe it is outpatient; it can even be done in your doc’s office. My late father was scheduled to have it last year but unfortunately was overcome by more serious issues.
Have you tried any saw palmetto? Some men find it helpful.
I really wish you well.
Helpful tips for BPH sufferers that don’t involve drugs or shoving anything up into the bladder:
- Practice “double voiding” by urinating as much as possible, relaxing for a few moments, and then urinating again.
- Try to relax before you urinate. Tension from worrying about your symptoms can make them worse. Anxiety may cause the smooth muscle in the prostate and the muscles at the opening of the bladder to stay tense and not relax. If these muscles do not relax, urination will be difficult.
- Take plenty of time to urinate.
- Try sitting on the toilet instead of standing, and sitting on the toilet after urinating while standing.
- Think of other things or read while you are waiting.
- Try turning on a faucet or picturing running water in your mind. Some men find that hearing running water helps get their urine flowing.
- Avoid liquids in the evening. This keeps your bladder from overdistending as much while you sleep, and a less-filled bladder has better tone for contracting purposes.

No point aiming when you can’t shoot.
Your coworker was right. Prostate stimulation can feel very good if done right .
Does “prostate fluid” = semen or precum? Did your doctor have you masturbate (with him in the room :eek: ). :dubious:
I’ll take your word for it.
Dunno the medical term for it, and I certainly didn’t wank it for the doc. My libido’s a dead parrot at this point.
Nah. It’s just pinin’.
Lovely plumage, though.
Yep. Sure did.
Has anyone done a parody called ‘I have no anus, and I must fart.’?
I’d love to, but I’m afraid of what HE might do to me.
Meanwhile, Tuckerfan, I hope everything comes out alright for you. STS
I find running for 15mins to half an hour usually makes me want to use the can if I have stuff in my bladder or intestines.
Definitely go to the ER if it doesn’t keep getting better! Granted, I am not a guy, so I’m lucky to have a short urethra, but getting catheterized was NOTHING compared to suffering a distended bladder.
See, after giving birth, I could only pee driblets, and this went on for about 18 hours. In the end, I wound up with a Foley catheter for five weeks, then having to use an in&out catheter on myself daily for a while. All because my bladder got so stretched, the muscles stopped working entirely. If I hadn’t been so scared of being catheterized, and just had them do it shortly after the birth, I’d probably have been fine. I’ve never really been the same since (though it’s kind of neat to learn that what I do now has an Official Medical Name: double voiding).
So, dude, I feel your pain. And I’m telling you there are worse things than having a catheter inserted, so get help if you need it.
Good luck!
I forgot to say that my idiot father had an enlarged prostrate and totally ignored it, hoping it would get all better. It didn’t. He self catheterized from the age of fifty something until he died at ninety-two. Please see a urologist ASAP.
