If you're having pains that the doctor can't seem to pinpoint the cause of they'll end up sending you to a doctor to check out your spinal cord. Or they'll prescribe pain meds.

What is a pudendal nerve motor latency test?

The pudendal nerve motor latency test is a diagnostic procedure used to assess the function of the pudendal nerve, which innervates the pelvic floor muscles and is crucial for bladder and sexual function. During the test, electrical stimulation is applied to the pudendal nerve, and the resulting muscle response is measured to determine the latency period. Prolonged latency can indicate nerve dysfunction or damage, helping to diagnose conditions like pelvic floor disorders or neuropathies. This test is often used in patients with urinary incontinence or pelvic pain.


What is CRPS?

CRPS is the short version of the name of Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome. CRPS type 1 is nerve damage. This is what i have in both my ankles. This is when the brain is sending constant pain messages to where ever you have CRPS. It is doing this as the Pain nerve has swelled and is pushing on the Touch nerve. So now the Touch nerve is sending pain messages to that area instead of Touch. This makes the area very sensitive and very painful constantly. My pain is a 8/10 constantly. My doctors describe my pain as worse than pregnancy. Some cases are more severe than others. I have met others with my condition and they can still walk and everything. i am in a wheelchair and have been for 2 years. CRPS has no cure but i go to physio daily and do school at physio for 2 hours a day. Many Pain killers have been tested on me but none work. For everyone else i have met amitriptilene has helped them.

What causes low back pain with leg involvement?

If the pain is sharp, and traces down the left side of the spine to the lower back, across the waist and hip, across the top of the thigh and down the inner knee, the problem is the L3/L4 disk pressing on the spinal nerve at that point. It typically sharp at the mid and lower back, and burning as it travels further, though it will occasionally be sharp all the time too. You can literally trace the nerve pathway with your finger by following the pain if it's bad enough. ---- I have this pain at the moment, I had it several years ago and it lasted for months I had a gluten intollerance test and it told me that I was intollerant to gluten, I cut out gliuten and within 2 wekd it had gone, its now come back although I dont eat anything with gluten in it.
