Pain in the butt - Can't sit down

I am interested in your his too. I have sitting pain and also have a burning aching pain feeling in the penis along with other pelvic pains. I have had some success at times with physical therapy but I get worse again. I try not to sit which helps. I find if I am stressed it gets worse. It does not like tensing the sphincter muscles, the pain is less when I relax the pelvic floor. I am now going to pain management and possibly have a pudendal nerve block. I am looking for anyone who has had this and how it felt after the shot and weeks after. While I am able to get the pain down at times I am still trying to figure out how to drive distances to my grand kids without being put in bad pain and how to lower my stress to keep the pain down. I have frequent urination which impacts my sleep at night. Lack of sleep lowers my pain tolerance. What is strange the pain does not stop me from fall asleep while a much less minor pain will. I would like to know about people’s experiences with the nerve block, how was it when it was done, did you get immediate relief or relief over a period of time and any other experience. My number one goal is to enjoy my grandchildren and this pain is having a major impact on me of enjoying life. At times I just want to lye down and do nothing. The pain seems to be a magnification of senses, it does not stop me from doing physical things but hurts and makes me not want too. I wish everyone happiness.

I feel your pain (pun intended). I feel while skiing back in '016. Landed hard on my lower back and buttocks. I have had all kinds if pain issues ever since,. I'll cut those out to save space. Ever since then, it has felt like I am sitting on something like a hockey puck in each buttock. No one has been able to diagnose or trat it. Believe me, I've been to more docs of every persuason... more than I can keep of track of. Spinal fusion. injections, nerve block, spinal cord stimulator (2). morphine pain pump, physical therapy, etc. Nothing has EVER touched this pain (I am feeling it right now, despite the pain pump and meds). I am seeing a new pain specialist who claims he can help me. I say "Ha!"! Talk is cheap. Show me results. Anyway, I hope your procedure helps you. Really.
