Hi Liz good to find you here, 👍great info.

[@brantgrimes617]

Good info. I've been taking antibiotics, but working out has most likely helped.

Can injured prostate heal itself? I got CPPS the night after I tried prostate massage through rectum. Is it possible that I have done some permanent damaged to my prostate and cause chronic pain? I did not experience pain during the prostate massage, just a bit of burning sensation. But after 5 hours, I got urination frequency. After the that day I have pain and discomfort in the perineum area.

Hi, I have the symptoms exactly as you described, Frequently urination, Burning urination, Urination urgency, Pain in the bladder, feel like bladder has injury, pain and discomfort from belly button down words, Pain and discomfort in Perineum, small amount of urine make me urgency if try to hold then get temperature+ vomiting, discomfort in bladder and around the area, all this started since 2017. Have seen many Urologist and twice cystoscopy, result normal but the symptoms are exist, all antibiotics have taken for months, not worked NOW I have asked to do Urodynamic. Will the Urodynamic Help? please reply, thank you

[@PelvicHealth]

A urodynamics test will not treat any of your symptoms. The test could reveal dysfunctional pelvic floor muscles which would suggest treatment with a pelvic floor physical therapist.

[@frederickwalzer5555]

I experienced the same symptoms. Go and see a PT. Urologists can't help you.

If the pudendal nerve is injured, irritated or compressed, can it heal by doing kegel and other pelvic floor exercises?

[@PelvicHealth]

Often pudendal nerve irritation can be treated with an individualized set of exercises geared at reducing compression or tension on the nerve. These exercises do not often involve Kegels. Kegels are a strengthening exercise that will increase muscle bulk and tension and often lead to more irritation in a sensitized nerve. Medical interventions may be used in combination with exercises. In some cases, the pudendal nerve is irritated by an structural abnormality, and these cases could require surgical intervention.

@@PelvicHealth thank you for answering me. I went to a physical therapist in my country to do external and internal examination, unfortunately in my country they only have external examination and they told me that I might have compression or tightened muscle near my pubic area so they advised me of doing kegel and normal pelvic floor strengthening exercises to solve penile pain. It is frustrating. I feel like they don’t know what is going on. My only reason I went to them is to have pelvic floor reports from them to give it to Dr Elizabeth. Do you recommend me to schedule appointment with her even though I don’t have any reports with me or I need to have something with me?

[@PelvicHealth]

@@Thesalamanca If you would like to get more information about your case and discuss options for moving forward, then yes, we do recommend scheduling an online consult with her. You do not need any reports with you for this appointment. You can request the appointment via this link pelvicpainrehab.com/telehealth/

@@PelvicHealth is urinary hesitancy (weak steam in the morning) a symptom of pudendal neuralgia? I started to believe I actually have enlarged prostate even though it wasn’t detected in the ultrasound. The problem is that I’m young, still 23 years old, why it has enlarged so early :( please just confirm with me if weak steam in the morning is one of the symptoms of pudendal neuralgia or not so that I don’t waste my time and money. Help me thanks.

Hi My age is 19 year. Over a year I feel left testicle pain,, and I consult a urologist and my all report is negetive,, he give me some pain killer and scrotal support but after 5 day my right testicle have mild pain ,,and sometimes I fell abdomen pain,, this problem I suffered more than one year ,,,I do masterbate very much 2 times a day with pillow by friction ,, and I took long hour for musterbrate ,,,,,,, so please tell me what can I do😭😭😭😭

[@PelvicHealth]

Testicle and abdominal pain often come together. Prolonged masturbation makes the muscles stay contracted and compresses nerves and blood vessels which can lead to discomfort. Also, pelvic pain can delay orgasm. I am glad you ruled out some things with your urologist. It sounds like you could use a pelvic physical therapist to help you determine what is causing the pain and help you alleviate it through lifestyle changes as mentioned in the video and often pelvic floor retraining. We are happy to have a virtual appointment with you so that we can better help you. You can sign up on this page: pelvicpainrehab.com/telehealth/ You can also read about about a similar case of scrotal pain that was seen by pelvic PT at pelvicpainrehab.com/male-pelvic-pain/3795/3795/

I have a Anterior pelvic tilt, I think it would be tough to have sex from a man's point of view

[@PelvicHealth]

We're not exact sure what you are referring to here. We know that the pelvis is made to tilt anteriorly and posterior, though it may be limited in one range of motion. Changing sexual positions can help make sex more comfortable for someone with limited range of motion. Pillows and bolsters are also great tools to help with positioning.

Can you still have kids ?

[@PelvicHealth]

Great question, this is not well understood. A 2014 systematic review and meta-analysis (journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0094991#pone-0094991-g005) showed that men with chronic pelvic pain do have reduced sperm concentration and motility, as well as reduced number of morphologically normal sperm. The authors of the study suggest that the inflammation associated with chronic pelvic pain may be a factor in affecting sperm parameters. We suggest working with a fertility specialist if you are having trouble conceiving.
