Pelvic Pain
Pelvic pain can affect the lower abdomen, pelvis, hips or surrounding muscles and may be associated with a range of musculoskeletal and pelvic health conditions. Symptoms can be persistent or intermittent and may affect everyday movement, exercise or quality of life.
Pelvic pain is often influenced by more than one factor, so assessment should be sensitive, thorough and individual. Understanding the pattern of symptoms can help identify appropriate treatment and support.
Common Symptoms
Symptoms can include aching, pressure or discomfort around the pelvis, hips, groin or lower abdomen. Pain may be associated with movement, exercise, sitting or other activities, and its presentation can vary considerably between individuals.
Possible Causes
Pelvic pain can have a range of musculoskeletal, pelvic health and other medical causes. Muscles, joints, nerves and the pelvic floor may contribute in some cases, so careful assessment is important to identify the most appropriate route for treatment.
