Discharge //

You were evaluated in the emergency department today for urinary retention. We have placed a foley catheter. Keep the bag attached to your leg and empty when full. If you do not have any urine output, or if the urine is cloudy or bloody, call your primary doctor or return to the ER. Follow-up with a urologist for management of the foley. You may need to contact your primary care doctor for a referral. Please follow up with your primary care physician within two days. If you do not have a primary doctor, you can call your insurance company to find one. If you do not have insurance, you can look for one on this of local clinics or go to the finance/registration department for more assistance. Return to the Emergency Department if you experience worsening problems urinating, back pain, blood in your urine, fevers, recurrent vomiting, or any other concerning symptoms.
