A member asked:

9 serotonin blocker drugs are used to block peripheral neuropathy pains. question: might they also work for pudendal neuralgia ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Drugs used to modify "nerve pain" would likely have equivalent effects on pudendal neuralgia. But pelvic floor physical therapy would likely add additional stabilization resulting in less need for pain control.
