Urethral Injury treatment in Magdalena Contreras

A urethral injury is damage to the urethra, the duct through which urine exits from the bladder to the outside. It can originate from blows, accidents, medical procedures, or the passage of objects, and its severity varies depending on the area affected.

Signs usually described:

• Pain or burning when urinating
• Presence of blood in the urine or at the urethral opening
• Difficulty emptying the bladder

When is it worth seeking help? When these symptoms appear after trauma to the pelvis or the genital area, or if urinating becomes difficult, it is worth not letting it pass.

Recommended specialist: the urologist is the professional who evaluates the urethra and the urinary tract. Going to see them makes it possible to understand the extent of the injury and to receive personalized guidance on the next steps.
