Professional PT guidance for properly performing Kegel exercises very helpful to me.
I was able to squeeze in 1 session before surgery and a few post op.
I was instructed to NOT do Kegels with catheter in place.
Also followed "cleaning catheter" instructions from Dr and online video while it was in place.
Best wishes.

Thanks Michaelcharles:
I did start the kegels routine prior surgery, I was surprised I was able to do it right after surgery, will wait for PT appointment for more recommendations.
The cleaning and doing it twice
A day due shower and in the morning.
Good vibes to you
