Dee/VULVODYNIA GUIDELINES.. Many suggestions here

[Guest guest]

Dee, I thought that this was a very interesting article! But

what really surprised me was – this was a Vulvodynia Guideline and they

mentioned PN. I would not have expected this at all! I quoted it below

nne

Surgery for Pudendal Nerve Entrapment. Perineal pain

caused by pudendal nerve entrapment is a rare entity. The pain is exacerbated particularly

by assuming a sitting position and is relieved by standing. Bowel function may

be abnormal, as well as painful. When the pudendal nerve is entrapped and the

patient has failed guided nerve blocks with corticosteroids, tricyclic

antidepressants, anticonvulsants, and physical therapy, surgical treatment is

an option. It is important to find a surgeon experienced in this area to

perform the procedure when indicated.
