Penis :: Pain In Coccyx Area (Prostate) - Erectile Dysfunction - Loss Of Libido
I am having some troubles since a while and I don't know what's happening, I am a 35 year old male and these are the symptoms I got:
- Loss of sex drive/desire and erectile dysfunctioning(I tried some pills like Cialis or viagra, it does help but the sex drive is not there all the time)
- Pain in my left lower back when sitting which irradiates in the thigh, testicles and groin
- Kind of throbbing pain around the coccyx (Prostate?)
- Last week and while defecating, I pushed a bit and I got a severe pain in my lower abdomen. I was sweating and felt very bad for about 10mn
- Numbness or slight loss of sensation in my hands and feet (More in the right side)
- Strange sensation in the rear of my neck or the low back of my skull
- Kind of lost interest in everything in life and I feel depressed and tired all the time also with a permanent slight headache.
I checked my PSA and got a cystoscopy 2 or three years ago but nothing was revealed. I also got a Varicocele embolization because we thought that was the reason of this uncomfort but it is even worst now.
Prostate Cancer :: Bladder Sphincter Inflamed By Radiation
My bladder sphincter is inflamed with the radiation. I have been using Ibuprofen eight hourly to reduce the inflammation for over 24 hours. Yesterday morning when I awoke after sleeping deeply about 3am and this morning about 5am I had very great difficulty starting at all. Other times if I am prompt I get started more easily with a poor flow. I don't know what the options are. I have read of others who have had treatment suspended because of side effects. That is my worst nightmare. Anyone experienced this problem. My rectum is producing excess mucus, otherwise the treatment seems to be going well. I have had 8 treatments of the planned 37. I am very alarmed and do not know what options if any there are. Are there any exercises that might help?
View 43 RepliesHIV Prevention :: Penis Against Anal Sphincter
Yesterday, I had an encounter with a guy I don't know very well. He told me he was HIV- and he didn't have any STD. We kissed a lot and engaged in protected anal sex. He ejaculated and removed the condom. It was intact and seemed perfect. 30 minutes later, we began to frottage. He rubbed his penis around my anus and then pushed in against my anal sphincter like he was trying to put it in without condom. I felt the pressure and told him to stop immediately so he did. I'm not sure but 1/3 of his penis glans might get in between my sphincter but definitely not get through it. It was like 2 or 3 seconds. He might have some Pre-ejaculation too. Am I at risk? Should I go for PEP?
View 4 RepliesGallbladder :: Pain From Sphincter Of Oddi
I Have been hospitalized the last two weeks for severe pain caused by SOD. It is mind boggling to me that people in the medical profession can be so ignorant and expect for pain to be textbook. I was reaching out to see if anyone had any good ideas on treatment options. With that being said I have had a sphincterotomy performed several years ago and now I am starting to have more pain and nausea (obvious by my hospital admissions). The only analgesic that is able to help the pain at all is Dilaudid, can't be morphine as this causes more spasms. I had an MRCP tonight, will talk to doctor in the AM and find out results. Please let me know what's worked/not worked for you and any treatments/tests that you have had done.

Flying after anesthetic for cortisone injections to the coccyx?
I was told by my surgeon that I could have my cortisone injections ( under general anesthetic ) to my coccyx before taking a 8 hour flight in 8 weeks time. He said he would get me in. 4 weeks later no letter. Rang his office and was told he's away until mid April and there was no way I could have it done before I flew in 4 weeks as I was having a general and you CANNOT fly for 6 weeks after a general!! So confused as to why the surgeon would say it's ok but receptionist is adamant I can't have it!
Can I have a general anesthetic and fly 4 weeks later? Any info would be much appreciated. I have googled it but I'm finding that I should be able too!

View 1 RepliesPossible Sphincter Of Oddi Malfunction
I had my gallbladder removed laparascopically 2.5 years ago. Have had some issues with diarrhea but nothing else. About 3 weeks ago I was diagnosed by my PCP based on my symptoms with gastritis due to Nsaid overuse. Have been on a PPI and Carafate. Not improving at all, in fact getting worse. My ALT liver enzyme was slightly high but otherwise the rest of the blood work was normal.
Went back to see my PCP today and she brought up the subject, based on my symptoms, of possible Sphincter of Oddi malfunction. My symptoms are RUQ pain that comes and goes, yellow stool, stomach bloating and nagging upper back pain between shoulder blades. I have an ultrasound on Friday. After reading about SOD (shudder) I think this might be just the beginning of the saga if I do indeed have it.
Do any of you dear readers have any experience or knowledge in this area?
It is a good thing I am retired because I have been basically sacked out on the couch. I think it would be impossible to work with the degree of discomfort I am having.
Lump Popping Out Of Anal Sphincter
About 3 Months ago i experienced some discomfort after going to the toilet (#2's), and noticed i had a small lump just outside my anus. It seemed like it went away, but everytime i go #2's it comes back out. Recently it's gotten a fair bit larger, and i believe there's a second one there too. Today, it seems like the larger one doesn't go back in, so it's constantly outside my anus and constantly hurts because it's chaffing between my bottom.. I haven't noticed any bleeding, and it is usually pain free because it goes back into my anus.
The lumps aren't overly hard, i can put a bit of pressure on them by squeezing, but i haven't tried to pop them or anything like that, afraid what may happen.

View 7 RepliesProgesterone To Help Regulate Sphincter Of Oddi Function?
Does anyone out here have any experience with using progesterone to help regulate the function of the Sphincter of Oddi?
My history: I am a healthy and active 132lb, 42 year old female, but I have been having pain in my upper right shoulder, neck and collarbone for three years now that has really curtailed my life and work. I have tried massage, acupuncture, physical therapy, drugs, strength training, chiro, all with no results. Recently a chiro noticed that my gallbladder area was tender and mentioned that gallbladder problems can refer pain up to the right shoulder area through the phrenic nerve. When I started tracking my pain and food I did notice a connection with pain in my shoulder and my right lower ribs as well (which I had been hiding with lots of ibuprofen). An ultrasound, blood work, and HIDA came back normal (at least that's how the doc reads it), but I'm still having pains when I eat oily foods. So now I am thinking I might have problems with the sphincter and with bile backing up creating pressure on the phrenic nerve. Another symptom is that I am now also having pains on my left side which could be the pancreas being impacted, which shares the common duct and sphincter.
So my question stems from the fact that I had a hysterectomy several years back and have only been on estrogen replacement. I've recently found out that progesterone is important for relaxing the Sphincter of Oddi muscles as well as gallbladder function (as well as many other things). When my nutritionist suggested a few months back to use Progonol, a progesterone cream, it did have a positive effect on the pain within two weeks, but it also caused acid reflux (it also loosens the valve between the esophagus and the stomach), so I had to stop taking it and now we are trying to figure out the best way to introduce it back into my body.
Sphincter Of Oddi Dysfunction After Gallbladder Removal
I had my gallbladder out about 9 years ago now, and have found every time I have opiates like codeine Etc it brings on a SOD attack. Has anyone else experienced this? So I have to avoid anything with opiates in it. Which is awful as I can't have any pain relief during labour and I am due in sept, I'm just wondering if anyone here knows of any of pain relief one can have if they can't have opiates?
