A member asked:

I fell out of the shower onto the toilet seat i fell on the left side of my butt and perineum area. i am concerned that i damaged my pudendal nerve from the fall?

Instead of speculating about the results of your fall, see your doctor, get examined, and arrive at a logical diagnosis. Treatment can proceed from there. Pelvic floor physical therapy could be considered if you truly do have pudendal nerve injury.
