Post-void dribbling
Leakage of residual urine from the urethra after voiding.
Post-void dribbling, or post-micturition dribbling (PMD), is the leakage of urine remaining in the urethra after bladder emptying. It is a common and usually benign complaint, though it may indicate urethral diverticulum, prostatitis, or other conditions. Some researchers consider it a normal occurrence in men due to male urinary anatomy, as all males pass some urine after micturition even without PMD.
