*i should mention that by "problems" i meant that while abusing roxicodone or hyrdocodone that they developed a prostate problem as a sideeffect of the drug* sorry about that!

Hi Lee! Yeah sorta. I read somewhere that abusing roxicodone and/or hydrocodone can cause the prostate to enlarge. When this happens it is difficult to urinate or you get  a start and stop stream or sometimes a weak stream. I'm not sure if it can make it so somebody cannot urinate though but that'd be a good question to ask for sure!

I'm guessing on this next part but IMHO it could also have something to do with the roxicodone/hydrocodone having an effect on the pelvic floor muscles and perhaps even the walls of the bladder..but that could just be me thinking wayyyyyy too much lol.
