Narrowing of the posterior urethra due to pelvic trauma is a dangerous disease caused by many causes, including trauma to the perineum. The disease causes many dangerous complications. You need to be examined very carefully to see if the urethral stricture is anterior or posterior, how long is the narrow passage, ... then, the doctor will give you a specific treatment plan.
