Pudendal Nerve Block [English] Permalink Public

This procedure involves injecting a small amount of local anesthetic (similar to dental freezing), with or without steroid medication, around the pudendal nerve (the main nerve in your pelvis). The pudendal nerve carries feelings to and from the groin, the vagina (women), the scrotum (men) and lower buttocks or backside. The block is most often done for people who have pain when sitting.
