Does inserting a male urinary catheter hurt?
Absolutely! Uncomfortable is just a lie. Insertion of a catheter is likely one of the most feared experiences as a young male, right up there with having a prostate exam. As previously mentioned, yes, it is uncomfortable but discomfort is different from pain. The insertion, and subsequent removal, of the catheter is really quite painless. Some pain does exist, and I'll get into this later, but all reasons for having a catheter inserted are far greater than the comparatively minor "pain" that it can cause.

Why do you insert a catheter in the right femoral?
A catheter may be inserted in the right femoral vein for various medical procedures, such as venous access for fluid administration, medication delivery, or diagnostic studies like venography.

Additionally, it can be used for interventions such as angioplasty or stent placement in the lower extremities. In some cases, the right femoral approach is preferred for certain cardiac procedures due to anatomical considerations.
What vein is used to place an IVC?
To place an intravenous cannula (IVC) the preferred veins are in the patient's arm. As a general rule, the patient's non-dominant extremity should be used.

In general, any distended vein may be used as long as all clinical and medical procedures and precautions are followed during the procedure.
