Violet is right that lower back pain is rarely attributed to PNE. It is either more a muscular condition or dysfunction of other nerves, not pudendal. On the other had, numbness of penis is a hallmark of pudendal neuropathy. In most cases, the numbness indicates more sever entrapment than pure pain ...

Bettina, ich wuerde das Ergebnis auch als positiv betrachten, zumindestens weisst du dass der Pudendus das Problem ist. Man kann weitere SErie von Injektion nuetzen befor die Entscheidung ueber moegliche Operation fällt. Die Steroiden koennten moeglicherweisse auch langfristig helfen. War der Block ...

Das ist nur eine Diplomaarbeit, es gibt da eine gute Zusammenfassung des aktuelles Wissens ueber Pudendal Neuralgie, aber leider nichts neues.

I can also relate to those whose problems were aggravated/triggered after prolonged sex/masturbation. These were also my main triggers in the beginning. But I always completely recovered in initial 1-2 years, so I think that there is following rationale behind that: Of course that rough sex or prolo...

Andy_pablo I also think you should try some other ways before surgery. An thorough and entire PT examination etc. is essential. I am also struggling with penile/perineum pain, can imagine what you have been through... Surgery is surely a way for some minor portion of pelvic pain sufferers-those who ...

Hello, dr Attaman, I would like to ask you whether you prefer alcock canal or ischial spine for block? Which of both location is better visualised by high resolution ultrasound device? Thank you

I can see some similarities between your problems and mine, I also have chronic pain in genital area, which started after prolonged sex, firstly episodically then chronic and pudendal nerve is surely included. Sensitivity seems to be still ok, no numbness issues, however during flare-ups it is somet...

Operation might be detrimental in that case and even blocks might aggravate the situation, but generally are worth the risk I guess. Very ...
