Urinary Urgency
Pudendal Nerve Entrapment Syndrome: A Commonly Missed Cause of Pelvic, Genital, Urinary, Bowel, and Sexual Pain
Pudendal nerve entrapment syndrome is a condition where the pudendal nerve becomes irritated, compressed, or mechanically sensitive as it travels through the deep pelvis. The pudendal nerve is one of the major nerves of the pelvic floor. It carries sensation from the perineum, external genital region, anus, and parts of the pelvic floor, and it also helps control muscles involved in bowel, bladder, and sexual function.
