What Could Weak Urine Flow And E Coli Infection Post Prostate Biopsy Indicate?

i had an ecoli infection after an ultrasound prostate biopsy due to an enlarged prostate. When the catheter was inserted into my penis, I had a really big urge to push which lasted less than a day. The catheter was removed after a couple of days and since then the urine flow is very weak. Prior to the biopsy there were no issues with urine flow.

Welcome!

I can well understand your concerns and here to help you.

It is due to infection of the urinary tract and needs prompt treatment. If I was your treating physician I would have prescribed you Nitrofurantoin antibiotics if not allergic to. Plus take Cranberry juice for symptoms of UTI.

Hope it helps. Need more help, contact anytime from my profile. Have a nice time ahead.

Regards!
