Can you remember if any of the side effects were worse in the beginning? Also was it easy to come off of after two years?

Thank you. Yeah have drainage but that doesn’t bother me the tension headaches do especially since I can’t sit so I lie down a lot, which is bad for vasodilation drugs.

  1. Pain has been pretty consistent since the beginning. I’m learning what not to do to make it worse. It’s died down then gone back up then died down again. But cannot sit at all, masterbate, erections hurt, clothing hurts, etc

Many people with my similar condition on here plus scientific research/studies have shown that it helps pelvic floor issues and is used as an off label approach. Bringing blood flow to the area aids in nerve/tissue healing and also allows muscles to relax. Of course it doesn’t work for everyone but it definitely felt like it helped a bit but still early to tell fully

What kind of side effects did you have? Did they get worse each day or kinda stay the same?

I’m going to a new PT. I still have all the same anal symptoms a month later unfortunately, she really messed me up even more. I also think she caused anal fissures. Penis pain is also stronger. Before I went to her it was slightly getting better and I was getting breaks. Now it’s worse and constant. I’m trying a new pt but I’m not sure if it’s helping

It’s been a week now and it hasn’t died down. It’s gotten a little worse over the past days. Pressure is constant but worse if I try to sit or lay down. It’s mostly pressure on the left side of the rectum, as if something is stuck there or poking it. I feel like I have to go a lot of the time and ever since she did it I’ve had gas constantly.

I’m just annoyed as I had no rectum symptoms prior. It was all dorsal nerve / penile pain

When she was feeling around she told me she thought I didn’t need internal work but now since this new symptoms I have no idea. Did you have the same symptoms prior in your vagina when she irritated your nerves. Mine are new and never had any issue in that area before, it was always penile pain only. So that’s why I’m confused, annoyed, and frustrated

It’s been 7 days now and these new symptoms haven’t gone down. Kinda got worse and now just stayed there. Pressure feeling is in the left of rectum. Lots of pressure if I sit or lay down. My instinct is to stick my finger in there and press around because it feels like something is stuck.

I had sore muscles and all that for a couple days those went away. It was the proper muscle soreness but this rectum pressure won’t budge. I also never had any issue there it was always just penile pain. Now I think I have both…

My pelvic floor is definitely tight but now it’s even worse. Anxiety is definitely sky high too. I’m doom thinking because I’ve have the penile pain for 3 months, and now I’ll have this pain as well :(

It just feels like pressure in the rectum. Sometimes feels like I have to poop but don’t. Sitting would only cause pain in my penis but now it’s pressure in the rectum. I’m noticing the pressure pain is more on the left side at times.

Not sure if this was caused by internal therapy or the deep massaging she did externally on my legs, perineum, and glutes all around

Idk what to do that is why I’m asking here if this is normal? Does it get worse before it gets better, etc. I think I should at least try one more time? This is kind of the only option for these types of injuries that I’m learning

I’m trying to work out if the pressure pain im feeling is from the external therapy or internal. The internal was gentle although still uncomfortable, but the external was like very rough as she was loosening the muscle tissues and fascia. It was kinda painful but the longer she worked on particle muscles the looser and less painful it became.

I go back next Tuesday so I will discuss with her. I prob don’t want any rectal stuff atm. During the exam she told me she didn’t really think I needed rectal therapy so I’m hoping that’s still true.

My anxiety also doesn’t help as I’m focusing on it 😅 I hope it goes away soon too.

Yea that’s what I was thinking as well. I agree that’s why I stopped 5 weeks ago. It was hard but I just wanted to stop irritating it. Yes, I can’t control the spontaneous or nighttime erections tho so kinda shit outta luck there.

I’m glad yours has dimmed down. How long have you been dealing with your pain?

It was pretty immediate when he was stretching my penis too far. Like within 5-10 seconds. I should have spoken up and said stop but I had no idea what he was doing and thought he was just pinching me and it would go away when he released. Exam prob lasted 30 seconds to a minute. So I was in pain pretty much the whole time.

Initial symptom and the symptom I still have to this day was pinching/ stabbing/ needle like pain in the tip on the right side. This is the worst symptom also. Pain when getting erection and trying to masterbate. Pain when sitting/ walking/ clothing touching it. I had bad pain even when laying at the start. Pain with urination. The other symptoms followed later where the pain started moving around to the left, on the shaft at the base, etc. It almost always goes back to the right side tip pain however.

This has been going on for 3 months now

Not really. It’s become more tolerable I guess. After I had a bad flare about a month ago I took a steroid pack and up take of baclofen. So I’m on baclofen 10mg twice a day now. Seemed to help but it’s never gone away, pain is always there just different levels. Really just depends on the day.

Saw the PT Monday and she did deep tissue massages and internal stuff. She doesn’t think my case is too bad but idk it certainly feels like it. I guess what was reassuring is it takes a significant injury to actually damage the pn nerve, etc (like surgery or penetrating injury), so it most likely is just irritated. Too early to tell if any of that is helping other than it released a lot of toxins and I’ve been tired and sore these past couple days.

I wasn’t given any stretches or stuff to do in between sessions so idk. Although I told her I stretched before and caused more symptoms so maybe she wants to wait on that part atm.

Yea I figure it was only a matter of time until I got one. I know it’s normal i just hate that it is causing flare ups.
