Re: muscles

C,

My inner thigh muscles hurt a ton - PT is helping alot with this. All

that thigh muscle and tissue is connected to the pelvic floor and can

cause referred pain to the vulva.

There are other nerves that run to the vulvar area that run

between the leg and the vulvar area that can also cause pain.

Also, the groin is there too and when something like an

infection occurs it can cause a lot of pain.

When these nerves and the groin act up it can cause pain to

radiate down the leg making one think it's muscle when it's not.

We have two other nerve branches in that area (which are both

peripheral nerves) called the genitofemoral and ilioinguinal

nerves. It can cause pain, and real bad sometimes such as with

infection. They can also get numb sometimes and the pain be

sharp which can let the person know that the nerves are damaged.

As Lindsey said about 2 weeks ago even with muscle issues (and

I've heard this elsewhere too) that the nerves are very

involved. It's how we know we hurt and also when we burn, the

nerve causes it by firing and sending a message to our brain

saying that we hurt whether it's actual pain or burning.

Usually happens after I am sleeping and have

a full bladdder, since I have been on elavil

not so bad, I guess that is from the vulvodynia. Millie
