Anyone out there diagnosed with Pudendal Neuralgia?
Chronic Pain | Last Active: 1 day ago | Replies (229)Comment receiving replies
Hi, Darrell,
My son is suffering with this (for a year now). He is unable to do the things he used to love. He is miserable with this pain. He has had a nerve block and botox to the butt muscle that is most likely compressing the pudendal nerve. He has done pelvic floor physical therapy, and nothing is helping. Please give me any information you can towards getting him back to having a normal, productive life.

I have mentioned this before on this thread, I sat on a donut for 14 years from this monster. Then I was prescribed an anti-seizure medicine for a migraine and daily persistent headache. Within 2 weeks my pudendal pain was gone. My pelvic therapist mentioned that she had heard of this. She never told me. The drug was Topamax.

I have had pudendal neuralgia for many years. I recently got it much more under control by taking 200-300mg of Lyrica. I have tried many other drugs but only Lyrica has helped. I am reluctant to do anything invasive in that nerve area. Try Lyrica. It takes some time to take effect.
