There are many different procedures that you can have done. Some are not very invasive, and some can be pretty invasive. Surgery is considered as the best long term option for enlarged prostate disease. Generally, in most procedures, the enlarged section of the prostate is removed. In one surgery (open prostatectomy) a doctor makes an incision and then removes the enlarged prostate tissue.

Does male dribbling stop after prostate surgery?

Sometimes. For some people the Prostate Surgery leaves behind temporary side effects. Life after "The Surgery" is changed forever. Of course despite the result of the surgery, you are on the right side of the daisies--Stampin them down rather than pushing them up. Dribbling can be dealt with. One tool that a lot of people find success with is called a "Bard Cunningham Clamp." This clamp applies enough pressure to stop the flow without applying so much pressure as to damage the tissue.
