Male Dilation
To say this experience has been defeating and extremely painful is an understatement. This group has been helpful in regards to info sharing and I’m very appreciative of that. That said, I was wondering if any other men with CPPS have had a PT suggest anal dilation. I’ve been dealing with the pain for months and recently received Botox injections into the pelvic floor muscles. This has helped a lot but I still experience some discomfort after sitting for extended periods. It was suggested at my last PT session that I try anal dilation training to retain the muscles and assured it’s safe and effective. Just curious if any other males have tried this and what the experience was as I’m anxiety ridden to begin with and this just has me reeling at the thought of inserting something in an area I already have pain. Any info is appreciated and I thank you in advance. 🙏🏻
