Your husband's Urologist can write a prescription for pelvic floor therapy with a physical therapist after he heals from the surgery. In addition to the physical therapist verifying the kegels are being done correctly, they'll work with your husband doing light weight exercises that strengthen the pelvic floor. These exercises can then be done at any gym or at home with stretch bands after physical therapy ends. Very worthwhile to get post surgery Pelvic floor PT. I've had zero incontinence issues since my surgery 2 years ago. Best of luck to you and your husband, he'll get through this just fine.
