Anybody have tips or advice for post prostatectomy

Just had prostatectomy and looking for advice from people that have had this surgery

  1. Hi . Hoping your recovery is going well so far. Quite a number of men here have had a prostatectomy. Our contributor Will wrote about his recovery here: https://prostatecancer.net/living/recovery-road and Bob here: https://prostatecancer.net/living/staying-active-during-recovery. I also want to share with you this video from Erin, who is a pelvic floor therapist, on Kegels for speeding up recovery: https://prostatecancer.net/video/kegel-research. She also did this one on common mistakes people make after surgery: https://prostatecancer.net/video/kegel-mistakes. Hope this is a good start and that others chime in with thoughts. Please feel free to ask additional questions as more specifics come to you. Best, Richard (Team Member)
