Prostate Cancer

Terrible burning pain when passing Urine after prostate radiotherapy 

  • Hi Stevie534 and thank you for your post. 

    I am sorry to read about your situation.

    Pain when passing urine can be a side effect of  prostate radiotherapy, but it can also be a sign of a urine infection.

    Maybe you could speak to your GP to check to see if it’s an infection which might require antibiotics. If it is not an infection then you could speak to your specialist nurse about your symptoms.

    I hope you find this information helpful.

    Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    Kind regards,

    Tina
