Understanding Chronic Pelvic Pain
Chronic pelvic pain refers to persistent pain in the lower abdomen or pelvic region that lasts for several months or longer. It may affect men and women and can arise from a range of causes, including nerve dysfunction, musculoskeletal issues, pelvic floor disorders, or previous surgery or trauma.
Consultant-Led Assessment
Accurate diagnosis is essential in managing chronic pelvic pain. Our consultant-led assessments involve a thorough medical history, focused physical examination, and careful review of relevant investigations. We take a sensitive and respectful approach, recognising the personal and often distressing nature of pelvic pain.
Targeted Treatment Options
Treatment plans are tailored to the individual and may include nerve blocks such as pudendal nerve blocks, pelvic injections, medication optimisation, and other targeted interventions. Our goal is to address the underlying source of pain and reduce its impact on daily life.
Multidisciplinary Approach
Chronic pelvic pain often requires a comprehensive and coordinated approach. Where appropriate, treatment may be combined with rehabilitation strategies and long-term pain management support to achieve the best possible outcomes.
Restoring Comfort and Quality of Life
Our focus is on improving comfort, function, and overall wellbeing. Through expert care, clear communication, and personalised treatment planning, we support patients in regaining confidence, mobility, and control over their lives.
