I have been dealing with pudendal nerve entrapment since 2008, I haven’t found any doctors that actually help with this, I have so many injections, internal and external physical therapy. Usually what I get is that it’s all in my head. I did get a Neurostimulator, it helps with my other problems, but not the pudendal issue. By the way I was a pedestrian struck by a vehicle. I went to drs in three different states no help, could you give names of drs that have helped you?

Hi @mad, Welcome to Connect, an online community where patients and caregivers share their experiences, find support and exchange information with others. @jenniferhunter shared a post earlier in this discussion that talks about Myofascial Release Therapy (MFR) that is known to help PNE - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/218802/

The Pudendal HOPE (Health Organization for Pudendal Education) website has a list of doctors you might find helpful here - https://www.pudendalhope.info/node/54

You mentioned that you have a Neurostimulator that helps with your other problems but not the pudendal issue. Have you found anything that helps a little to provide some relief?

My experience has been if a vain doctor does not know the answer then he or she says that it is all in your head. Sorry but I do not have the name of someone to help you.
