Have you been diagnosed with tight pelvic floor, levator Ani or pelvic floor dysfunction and have seen it affect your bowel movements?

I appreciate your insight

Hi, I have pelvic floor dysfunction which also affects my bowels. I also have pudendal neuralgia as well as a rectal.prolapse and intussusception.I get chronic pain after a bowel motion and often struggle to go or have to work hard to make my bowels regular and comfortable.

I have had 2 nerve block injections and having the third tomorrow as well as botox into the puborectalis muscle to try and stop it spasming.

I see a pelvic floor physio who is wonderful. I also see an osteopath who is very helpful.

I would strongly recommend you find a very good pelvic floor physio as they can really help.

Hope this helps.

Take care and good luck.

I think my bowel issue (constipation) may have contributed to my pelvic floor issues.
