Blood in urine when cathing

[justej]

I know its normal to have blood in your urine when you start to do intermittent catheterization but when does it stop? Thanks

[sociologygeek]

Usually in a week or so.. I cath and ive had blood it doesnt last long

It just seemed like it was more today and I got concerned

Also it only happens when I cath. If I skip a few times and pee into a diaper or something its clear.

make sure you wash your hands each time and use plenty of lubricant.
