Lidocaine infused antibiotic ointment for when the tip of your penis is rubbed raw from the catheter. (No surgery but did have a long-term catheter. Very soothing.)

Exactly! That is critical. That was supplied to me by the hospital, but ahead of time, I purchased a Neosporen plus pain relief cream, which I did not have to use. I used the abtibiotic and pain relief ointment supplied by the hospital twice a day, and did not have any pain at the point where the cathether enters my body.
