Health Organization for Pudendal Education

Thank you Helen Hmmm where to go next? After jumping through all the hoops and seeing urology, gynae etc, I was ready to ask my GP for a referral to Dr Greenslade but now am wondering whether to chase my back problem instead? I`ve an appointment with my GP on Tuesday and I`ll see if he can tell me m...

Hi everyone I logged in about 5 months ago and have since been going through the various hoops such as urology and gynae to reach a diagnosis. Meanwhile I was sent to a wonderful physio lady via the NHS. She diagnosed the pudendal nerve plus my sacriollic joint as being my problem and she`s emailed ...

Hi sunshine My pt found my pelvis out of line also, and the same as you, mine `hit` my pudendal nerve. She worked on it and at last, the inside pain I`d been having is gone. I`ve had pain in the anus region and painful BM`s, but believe I helped myself out by `consciously` relaxing those muscles - p...

I hope you get your referal and the urogynae therapist goes on a quick learning curve to help you Helen :) Your BM problems sound horrible, and to think you`ve been suffering for 4 plus years just doesn`t seem right ( in this day and age) My appointment to see urology is on Tuesday and I`m hoping fo...

Hi Karyn No to your answer. I use Aloe Vera Gel that I buy from Holland and Barrett. I buy the best one I can afford that contains the most Aloe Vera. I`m not sure that I could manage without it now- it soothes a lot and helps with `some` pain after a BM. The things we talk about on here, I don`t sh...

Hi Sunshine You mentioned PT hurting further up the thread and scaring you off. I`ve had PT from an osteopath over the years for my back and now for PN and to begin with, I`ve always found that for 2 days after (at least) that it hurts. It sometimes hurts more than the orginal symptoms you went with...

Hello everyone Good luck with your urology appt too Helen. The last time urology saw me, I was in so much pain, that I couldn`t pin point exactly where it was- and I hadn`t heard about PN then either. Now that my pain`s under control - I can draw them a diagram :D and show exactly where it hurts. Th...

I`m glad you asked this Judy.
Sorry, I haven`t got any initial explanations to add. But knowing all the various terms is going to be helpful in trying to fathom out what`s what!
take care
Joy

Use Aloe Vera Gel after a painful BM - excellent!!

Update... hello other Newbies and Helen, Calluna and Violet. Sorry all, for not posting sooner but pregabalin and tramadol controlled my pain, and I got caught up on real life and housework :) I believe I told you that I`d found a pelvic floor therapist who wasn`t too far away? Her findings and diag...
