Does my child has to be bed ridden or can he move around after the hypospadias-operation?

Usually the child is allowed to sit and move around and lead a normal life 24 hours after the operation (however care must be taken to protect the genital area). However in proximal forms of hypospadias extra care must be taken to avoid slippage of the catheter outside the bladder.
