Croup is a condition that develops quickly in children and is usually caused by a viral infection in the upper airways, which is localised in the throat and surrounding tissues. It's characterised by a barking cough. It's fairly uncommon and affects more boys than girls.
However, depending on the type of catheter you had installed (a urethral or a suprapubic catheter), you may still experience some catheter pain, especially in the case of an indwelling catheter that is expected to stay in your bladder for awhile â usually from a few days all the way up to forever.
A long-term catheter is held in place by a balloon -- CISC catheters do not have this balloon or the side port, found at the end of the catheter, for balloon inflation. CISC catheters may be made of a clear plastic or a softer rubber material. These catheters also come in a variety of sizes.
