Sugegst Treatment For Chronic Bladder Neck Sphincter Spasm
Question: How to correct a chronic bladder neck sphincter spasm that's causing near constant unemptying sensation and hoping to heal the pain and tightness that has developed over 6+ years in the pelvis and legs. He is a 33 year old male, 6'3", 210 lbs., diagnosed with chronic pelvic pain syndrome and pelvic floor muscle spasm. Thank you.
Brief Answer:
pelvic spasm
Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX
It is important to rule out if there is bladder neck obstruction which gives unemptying sensation. Bladder neck obstruction needs correction by dilatation of the passage or surgical measures to relieve the constriction. If the pathological condition is ruled out and there is only pelvic muscle spasm one needs reassurance, adequate mental and physical rest complete stress free atmosphere, adequate fluid intake, less of high calorie and fatty diets, yogic exercises and may be some muscle relaxant drugs. Also weight reduction measures are also required.
As the pelvic muscle spasm is a chronic process and thus will go gradually if the above measures are adhered to.

Surgery was done to open the bladderneck obstruction, but the sphincter spasm continues. Stress free living is very hard to obtain. Would psychiatric treatments along with hypnotic measures to help relax, could that be a way to try while working on diet and healthy lifestyle?

May I ask your opinion on botox injections or does that cause even more problems?
Brief Answer:
bladder neck obstruction
Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX
Botox is actually used to tighten the muscles which are loose. You are already having spasm and this will aggravate your problem.
You need physical and mental relaxation. You can also try to immerse your bottom in tolerable hot water tub.
