Health Organization for Pudendal Education

Hi everyone! I think I may have pudendal neuralgia, but would like to have a CT guided pudendal nerve block to confirm. Does anyone know of a PN doctor in Milwaukee, WI, and/or a place where I can get the CT guided pudendal nerve block?

Thank you!

Beverly

Hi Beverly I looked on the homepage under the doctors list and didn't see anything for your state, so I wondered if you could contact someone from the site www.pelvicrehab.com to see if there's any physical therapist who deals with pudendal neuropathy in your area, because they may work in tandem with a doctor or radiologist who knows something about pudendal nerve blocks. I would suggest a pudendal nerve block without steroids as opposed to one with... and maybe just try a pudendal nerve block with lidocaine . I do not have a medical background , however I have been injured by pudendal nerve block with Depo-Medrol , which is a steroid. In a nih.gov publication dated 2017 by JJ Labatt and TR, Riant et al
concerning adding corticosteroids to the pudendal nerve blocks for pudendal neuralgia.... came to the conclusion that corticosteroids provided no additional therapeutic benefit compared with local anesthetics and should therefore no longer be used.
Beverly I hope this helped I am better at cheering people on than at giving understanding the labyrinth that is pudendal neuralgia but I do wish you all the best Sadie

Hi Sadie, thank you for all the great information. I will check out that link. Wishing you well on your road to recovery! God bless!!

Hi Beverly,
I just now joined and saw your post.
The below are in Milwaukee in case you’re still searching:
-Dr Nicolette Deveneau, Ascension Columbia St Mary’s. She does PN block +Botox, office has 1 PT.
-Dr Sumana Koduri, Froedtert. She does PN block & trigger point injections.
-PT Beth Malak, Froedtert. She’s excellent.
-in Waukesha, there’s awesome PT Sarah Droessler, ProHealth.

I hope you are doing well.
