Question : Hello; I am having a problem with my bladder.I was getting alot of puss when I drained it with a catheator,my Dr.gave me some and cleaned it right up and it's a good colour. When I drain after I pee with a catheator I get around 350 to 450 ml. What should be the norm?

Brief Answer:
That sounds alright

Detailed Answer:
Hi Briandglen69,

The amount you mention sounds normal, but naturally it depends on the intervals between catheterization, i.e. the longer the interval, the higher the volume. Do you experience any pain, fever?

Best wishes.

No there's no pain. I thought it should drain completely. So everything sounds good?

Brief Answer:
Does it drain 350-450ml?

Detailed Answer:
Hi again,

Do you mean that 350-450ml are drained or that 350-450ml remain in your bladder after emptying?

Looking forward to hearing from you.
