Pelvic Pain

Injury Doctors NYC specializes in providing comprehensive care for individuals experiencing pelvic pain. Our team of experienced medical professionals is dedicated to diagnosing the underlying cause of your discomfort and implementing personalized treatment plans to effectively alleviate your symptoms. Below, we outline the common causes, diagnosis, and treatment options for pelvic pain:

Common Causes of Pelvic Pain:

Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID): An infection of the female reproductive organs, typically caused by sexually transmitted infections (STIs) such as chlamydia or gonorrhea, leading to inflammation, pain, and discomfort in the pelvic region.

Endometriosis:A condition characterized by the growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterus, often resulting in pelvic pain, menstrual irregularities, painful intercourse, and infertility.

Interstitial Cystitis (Painful Bladder Syndrome): A chronic bladder condition characterized by pelvic pain, urinary urgency, frequency, and discomfort, often exacerbated by certain foods, stress, or bladder irritation.

Pelvic Floor Dysfunction: Dysfunction of the muscles, ligaments, and connective tissues in the pelvic floor, commonly due to factors such as childbirth, trauma, surgery, or chronic constipation, leading to pelvic pain, urinary or bowel dysfunction, and sexual dysfunction.

Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs):Infections of the urinary tract, often caused by bacteria, resulting in pelvic pain, urinary urgency, frequency, burning with urination, and discomfort in the lower abdomen.

Diagnosis:

When you visit Injury Doctors NYC for pelvic pain evaluation, our skilled physicians will conduct a thorough assessment, which may include:

Medical History Review: Gathering information about your symptoms, medical history, menstrual cycle, sexual activity, and previous pelvic surgeries or infections.

Pelvic Examination: Assessing the external and internal pelvic structures, including the uterus, ovaries, and cervix, as well as palpating for areas of tenderness or abnormal masses.

Diagnostic Testing:Ordering laboratory tests such as urine analysis, cultures, or STI testing, as well as imaging studies such as ultrasound, CT scans, or MRI to evaluate the pelvic organs and identify any structural abnormalities or sources of inflammation.

Treatment Options:

Based on the diagnosis, our team will develop a customized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and preferences. Treatment options may include:

Medications: Prescribing antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs, muscle relaxants, hormonal therapies, or pain relievers to alleviate pelvic pain, reduce inflammation, and manage underlying conditions contributing to your symptoms.

Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy: Engaging in specialized exercises, manual therapy techniques, biofeedback, and relaxation techniques to improve pelvic floor muscle function, reduce tension, and alleviate pelvic pain and dysfunction.

Lifestyle Modifications: Implementing strategies such as dietary changes, stress management techniques, bladder training, and bowel management to minimize triggers and improve pelvic health.

Minimally Invasive Procedures: Performing procedures such as laparoscopy, hysteroscopy, or cystoscopy to visualize and treat pelvic conditions such as endometriosis, adhesions, fibroids, or cysts.

Interventional Pain Management: Administering nerve blocks, trigger point injections, or neuromodulation techniques to target pelvic pain, disrupt pain signals, and provide temporary or long-lasting relief.

At Injury Doctors NYC, our primary goal is to alleviate your pelvic pain and improve your quality of life. Contact us today to schedule a consultation and take the first step toward effective pelvic pain relief.
