My son had pudental nerve entrapment! He was a huge mountain bike cyclist! The pain was terrible! It was brought on by exaggerated stress! We live in Alabama, but he went to a physical therapist in Boulder, Colorado. He had to have some type of manipulation which required going through the anus! His PT in Colorado faced time with his PT here in Alabama! It took close to 2 years to completely recover! He was still afraid of getting on his bike! His PT told him he was well and needed to get back on the bike! His first ride was an extremely difficult ride, but he was so focused on the ride, that he didn’t even think about pain! This was about 5 years ago and he has never experienced this problem again since leaving PT!
He also read a book called the
, The Mindbody Prescription , healing the body, healing the pain by John E Sarno, MD. You should try to find a Dr that understands PD! Most urologist don’t even know anything about this real problem! It’s just in your head. This is what he heard from several dr’s! Do not have surgery! Many times it just makes the problem worse! Good luck and I hope you find a PD DR that can help you!

Do you know the name of the PT in Colorado? Would love to contact

The only thing that worked for me after 14 years sitting on a donut was an anti-seizure drug, Topamax that I took off-label for constant headache. I took it for 2 weeks and the pain in my rectum was gone. Still had the headache. My pelvic therapist mentioned that she had heard of this before, never bothering to mention it to me!!! Worth mentioning to your doctor.
