Pelvic pain can be felt in the lower abdomen. The discomfort might be abrupt and severe (acute pelvic pain) or linger for 6 months or longer.  Pelvic pain can be a sign of infection or it can be caused by pain in the pelvic bone or non-reproductive organs like the bladder or colon. Pelvic discomfort in women, on the other hand, can be an indication of a problem with one of the reproductive systems in the pelvic area.

Pelvic Pain Symptoms

Pelvic discomfort comes in a variety of shapes and sizes. It can affect just a small area around your pelvis (your lower tummy) or the entire region.

Pelvic discomfort can take a variety of forms.

  • a sudden intense, stabbing, or scorching pain;
  • an ache that develops gradually yet persists
  • a dull or severe aching, or a pressing sensation
  • a cramping or throbbing discomfort that comes and goes only while you’re doing something, such as exercising, having sex, or peeing a twisted or knotted feeling.

What Is the Treatment for Pelvic Pain?

Treatment for pelvic pain varies based on the reason, the severity of the pain, and the frequency with which it happens. Medications, including antibiotics if necessary, are sometimes used to alleviate pelvic pain. If the discomfort is caused by a problem with one of the pelvic organs, surgery or other procedures may be required. More information about the various therapies for pelvic pain can be obtained from a Eurogynocology Specialist.
