After removing a catheter, if there are urine dribbles, it is important to monitor the patient for any signs of discomfort or complications. Encourage them to drink fluids to promote normal urination and to try to void regularly. If dribbling continues or increases, or if there are concerns about urinary retention, it may be necessary to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and guidance.
