how is catheter inserted in men
Put water-based lubricating jelly on the first 7 to 10 inches of the catheter: This will help decrease discomfort during the procedure. Insert the catheter: With one hand, hold your penis straight out from your body. With your other hand, slowly put the catheter into the urinary meatus. Gently push the catheter about 7 to 10 inches into your penis until urine begins to come out. Once urine starts to flow, push the catheter up 1 inch more and hold it in place until the urine stops.
