There are many intertwined causes that may lead to pelvic pain. These causes include musculoskeletal, neural, visceral and hormonal factors among others. Common injuries often become compounded and chronic and begin to involve neighboring systems in the body. This lecture will delve into the anatomy of the pelvic structure as well as the overlapping symptoms, referred pain patterns and clinical presentations of pelvic pain syndromes. The common misdiagnoses, mistreatments and mistakes in managing these patients will be reviewed. Recommendations for clinical questioning of the patient, evidence based treatment strategies and proper management of the pelvic pain patient will be discussed. Specific conditions such as coccxydynia, pelvic floor syndromes and pudendal neuralgia will be discussed as well as influential neural processes such as central sensitization. This lecture will provide the attendees with practical application and a broader understanding of the complex pelvis.
