Pudendal Nerve Entrapment

I though my burning anus, and burning pain in scrotum and penis subsided till I sit on floor leaning my back against the wall and pain in scrotum and penis came back.

Is this sign of pudendal nerve entrapment?

Pudental irritation,pelvic floor dysfunction,pudental entrapment possibly any of these.... Better to get an assessment with a pelvic floor therapist who sees men... Of course you'll probably need some imaging like CT scan ,MRI or an MRN of the nerves

Hi , I think it could be ,but it may also be a lower spinal nerve entrapment.You May find if gabapentin/Lyrica solves the pain issue that it is definitely a nerve pathway irritated.

Sorry, we are in the UK. All I can say is try to find a specialist Physio, my wife goes to a very good one here in the UK and we found her pretty late on but she has still helped over a long period. I think the early you can get treatment the better the outcome.

Good luck my friend.

Hi Benhur1,

Our PT recommends Maria Elliott based in London but if you don't want to go into London Maria could recommend someone nearer, alternately you could get information via the pogp.csp.org.uk website.

Good luck my friend.

I have pne and take 1800mg gabepentin a day with little relief.

Am now trying compounded gabepentin that goes right into blood stream as a suppository, is very effective! Good Luck!
