How painful is the TURP procedure?

The actual surgery does not have to be uncomfortable, as spinal or general anesthesia would be applied. After the operation, there may be some discomfort associated with the urinary catheter and irrigation. This will improve after the catheter is removed. There is no open wound and patients can usually move about early after the operation. For more information, see the surgical treatment of BPH.
