Anyone out there diagnosed with Pudendal Neuralgia?
Chronic Pain | Last Active: Oct 14 2:50pm | Replies (200)Comment receiving replies
Darrell, I would be interested in messaging you. I have a pudendal nerve injury on the perineal branch from cycling. I see that Dr. Antolak has retired and I'm wondering who the best surgeons are. I have tried all of the conservative treatments for 2 years and nothing has helped. Does anyone else have good leads?

Hello @dhc684, Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Darrell @dmburns54 may not have seen your message since he was not specifically tagged using his member name. Hopefully he will see this message. You may also be interested in another discussion - Pudendal Nerve Entrapment/Neuropathy/Damage: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/pudendal-nerve-entrapmentneuropathydamage/ to see if other members can recommend a surgeon.
Have you thought about getting a second opinion from a major teaching hospital or Mayo Clinic?
Having been there, I would for sure. Try Radio frequency ablation before surgery. It solved my problem. I finally went to Mayo Clinic to find out what I could do about my pudendal nerve pain. It is worth going to Mayo

Has the surgery really helped anyone? I have not had this but a couple months. Pelvic floor therapy helps over time.
