Difficulty Emptying Bladder. A less serious form of urinary retention that can happen after surgery can cause a delay in getting started urinating, or it may feel as though the bladder is still full after a successful trip to the bathroom. This is not an emergency, but it should be discussed with your surgeon, especially if it persists. Some patients are able to urinate, but they feel that their bladder isn't emptying completely. This should also be reported as it can lead to urinary tract infections. A change in medications can often correct bladder problems. Sources:
