Do those Kegels!

Hard to explain Kegels. I am sure your doctor would write a script for you to have several weeks of PT with a Pelvic Floor physical therapist. They will actually connect a probe to you and verify the kegels are being performed properly. It is more of a feel thing than an exercise. Also the therapist will likely set you up on a program to do more traditional very light exercises that strengthen your pelvic floor muscles. I added them to my gym routine for a few months. Now I just do a few minutes of Kegels each morning. Good luck with everything and definitely ask for a script for PT. You won't regret it.

perrychristopher, I am going to do what you recommended. I tried to research but really could not understand the process.

Mayo Jacksonville has a very good PT section and meeting with my PCP soon so will asked for the PT referral.
Thanks
