Description

Erectile dysfunction is one of the most common side effects following prostate surgery, with many men also experiencing urinary incontinence. In this video, the team at Complete Physio explains why this happens, how different surgical approaches affect recovery, and what can be done to support men during rehab. We talk through the impact of nerve-sparing techniques, when erectile function typically starts to return, and how physiotherapists work with patients before and after surgery to help improve outcomes. That includes using ultrasound to assess pelvic floor muscle activity, guiding men through targeted exercises, and helping them build strength over time.
