Clitoral pain

Hello, wondering if anyone out there has had clitoral pain. I have other areas of pain as well but the clitoral pain is my worst. Wondering what has helped members deal with it and treat it. Having a difficult time with this. I have been suffering for 11 years now. I have tried PT and PN nerve blocks with little to no help. My next option is surgery. Any comments would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I have bouts with clitoral pain as well. Unfortunately, I haven't found anything that has helped alot, but I do take neurontin, imiprimene and tramadol that seems to take the edge off. Who have you seen for treatment? I found out via MRI by Dr. Potter that the dorsal nerve to the clitoris is encased in scar tissue. I am not sure, but thinking that may be why I have this problem.

Hoping you find relief quickly,
Grace

Steph, clitoral pain is very common with PN because the dorsal nerve that goes to the clitoris is a branch of the PN. You could try using extra strength vagisil cream or ice as a temporary measure. Or you can read through the medication section of the forum for ideas on oral medications.

Best wishes,

Violet
