My uroligist has suggested I try a penile clamp. I am currently using briefs/pads and external catheter, depending on need and activity. I use briefs/pads when sleeping and during period of less activity. I use the catheter when I wont have ready access to a bathroom for long periods or just dont want to deals with wet briefs/pads. I initially was not interested in trying a clamp due to perceived discomfort and possible injury if used incorrectly. However, in considering its use I think it could fill a need to control leakage during short periods of more intense physical activities such as long, athletic walks or running.
I would be curious to know if anyone has used penile clamps, what your experience has been, how you have used them, and any benefits or drawbacks encountered. I have recieved a BARD Cunningham Regular Clamp Large but have not used it yet.
Thanks!
