Brief Answer: Urine leaking can be normal Detailed Answer: Hi Urine that leaks after stool could sometimes be normal. This is actually the left out urine in the urethra. The left out urine could be because of different reasons like enlarged prostate, stricture or at the kink of penile urethra. I suggest you to milk the urethra after every urination and defecation to empty it. If you have discomfort in between scrotum and anus it could be prostatitis. In such a case you need 3 to 4 week antibiotic treatment as well. All these can be well examined and treated by Urologist. So please visit a local Urologist and get the things done easily.
