TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Chapter 36. Perineal Pain A1 - Wesselmann, Ursula A2 - Warfield, Carol A. A2 - Bajwa, Zahid H. PY - 2004 T2 - Principles & Practice of Pain Medicine, 2e AB - Chronic, nonmalignant pain syndromes of the perineal area have been well described in the medical literature dating back to the last century. However, the etiology of these focal pain syndromes is poorly understood. The patient who is experiencing pain in the perineal area is often embarrassed, because these areas of the body are considered taboo in our society. These pain syndromes are frequently under-reported and under-recognized.
