Non-infectious ischio-gluteal bursitis
Non-infectious ischio-gluteal bursitis
PNE since 2002. Started from weightlifting. PNE surgery from Dr. Bautrant, Oct 2004. Pain now is usually a 0 and I can sit for hours on certain chairs. No longer take medication for PNE. Can work full time and do "The Firm" exercise program. 99% cured from PGAD. PNE surgery was right for me but it might not be for you. Do your research.

Re: Non-infectious ischio-gluteal bursitis
Thanks Violet, the list grows.
I see that Dr Beco has added Tarlov cyst and arachnoiditis to his list of diagnostic considerations and has attempted to give symptomatic differences. http://www.pudendal.com/ entitled;
Facing a pain or a functional trouble of the
perineum, how can we make the differential
diagnosis between pudendal neuropathy,
arachnoiditis or symtomatic Tarlov’s cyst ?
I'm sure the pictures in the next one have been posted before but maybe not in this Tarlov cyst presentation?? http://www.perineology.com/files/Mezzadri-Vichy2012.pdf
