Pelvic Pain
Pelvic pain is a complex condition that can affect various parts of the lower abdomen and pelvis. It can arise from a range of causes, including musculoskeletal issues, reproductive disorders, or nerve-related problems. At Southern Coast Spine & Pain Specialists, we are committed to providing comprehensive care and effective treatments to help manage and alleviate pelvic pain, improving your quality of life.
Symptoms of Pelvic Pain
Pelvic pain can manifest in various ways, including:
- Aching or sharp pain in the lower abdomen or pelvis.
- Pain during or after sexual activity.
- Painful menstruation or irregular menstrual cycles.
- Discomfort during bowel movements or urination.
- Chronic pain that persists for months or longer.
Understanding Pelvic Pain
Pelvic pain can be acute or chronic and may result from several conditions, including:
- Musculoskeletal Issues: Problems with the pelvic muscles, ligaments, or joints can cause pain in the pelvic region. Conditions such as pelvic floor dysfunction or sacroiliac joint dysfunction are common contributors.
- Reproductive Disorders: Conditions like endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), or ovarian cysts can lead to pelvic pain. Women may also experience pain related to menstruation or pregnancy complications.
- Nerve Pain: Nerve-related issues, such as pudendal neuralgia, can cause persistent pelvic pain due to nerve damage or irritation.
- Gastrointestinal Issues: Disorders like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) can cause referred pain to the pelvic area.
- Urinary Tract Issues: Conditions such as interstitial cystitis or chronic urinary tract infections (UTIs) can result in pelvic discomfort.
