Spc

Hi I have a suprapubic catheter as am paraplegic due spinal cord injury so no control over bladder.
A friend said cannot go scuba diving with spc. Is this right? If so is it due infection or due pressure underwater? I wanted to find somewhere t learn this year.

Re: Spc

It is possible to scuba dive with a catheter

However, it is important that you are assessed (including bladder pressures) by a specialist reconstructive urology team first
