Q: Had GreenLight performed last week. Seems to be healing quite nicely. Flow is strong but almost every hour. Is this a normal side effect and if so, how long should I expect it to last? Thanks

The fact that your flow is strong implies that a satisfactory amount of tissue was treated with the Green Light. The urinary frequency that you are experiencing is to be expected and can last for several months after laser. If it is bothering you, discuss with your Urologist the possibility of using anticholinergic drugs for a few weeks.
