I wonder If there is any one from Sweden with PN or PNE. I have had some tests like MRI and some ongoing tests. Could anyone give me any information if there is any physiotherapist or docctor with PN knwoledge in Sweden. Where are the physiotherapists for PN in Europe? It seems like 90 percent pysiotherapists are in the US or Canada or Australia. Any help woul be appreciated. If you need more info or detail, just ask me.

My dr. here in the U.S. uses a big safety pin to diagnosis of Pudendal Nerve Entrapment. He touches several parts of your genitals and if you can't feel it then something is wrong. Do you have any Physical Therapists who are Pelvic Floor Specialists in your area - that is who diagnosed me and then sent me to a specialist.

I am really very sorry for a late reply. That is a interesting way to diagnose PNE, using a safety pin. I read that Prof. Antalok has a protocol that suggests this diagnosis procedure. I hope It works. Because it is by far the esiest and cheapest and shortest way to diagnose PN or PNE. I have not found any pelvic floor physiotherapist for men with knowledge about PN in Sweden. I searching here and there. Even in other places in Europe. How is your treatment going? Wish you the best.

Hi Sezan, I'm in Sweden too and I have been searching for help since October last year. But I live in rural Sweden. Still, I have not found doctors or physiotherapists with pelvic floor awareness, or interest, in the city areas either. And I'm a woman... Perhaps we can search better together?

Hi, Sorry to hear your condition. I have also been searching since October actually! After searching in Stockholm and failing, i started searching the other way, from the UK, with one of the 2 pelvic floor therapist with knowledge about pelvic nerve pain. From her via an pelvic floor physiotherapist Professor in Linköping I atlast found one single physiotherapist in Örebro recently who knows something and treat patients with these type of pelvis pain. So good news for the moment. I booked the first appointment with her on 25th of April. I can give you her mail address here or by eamil. Let me know. Let's hope for the best. Ha det bra.

Sezan; for some reason I missed your answer. I'm just back from seeing PT Maria Elliott in London. It was a wonderful experience and she managed to get me almost painfree for a couple of days. Above all, she gave me hope and "tools" to work with. But I'm still looking for a pelvic-PT in Sweden. I'd love to have your Örebro contact. How do we go about this? Would it be ok to give her name here, or can we contact each other privately? And who is this pelvic floor PT Professor in Linköping? I thought I had turned every rock there is...;)!

I'll try to reach you on your profile too.

Hope things are working out for you and that you have, by now, found relief through your PT or in another way! All best!
