A member asked:
Have you heard of pudendal nerve entrapment?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes : Pudendal nerve entrapment is an uncommon problem caused by compression of the pudendal nerve which is usually worsened with sitting. Symptoms can include pain, numbness, and incontinence. I recommend you see a neurologist or neurosurgeon with expertise in this problem to discuss treatment options.

Yes: Not many physicians in the country treat this condition. In NJ we have a nice consortium. Here are some resources: www.pelvicpain.org http://www.oswego.edu http://www.advancedreconstruction.com
