Pelvic nerve pain in Sweden: where the care pathway stops — Sverige / Sweden

Medically reviewed by Dr Renaud Bollens — Professor of Urology

Sverige / Sweden

Pelvic nerve pain in Sweden: where the care pathway stops — written for patients in Sweden who have reached the end of the local pathway for bäckensmärta nervsmärta Sverige.

Swedish patients typically pass through primary care, gynaecology or urology, and then a pain clinic. The pathway is competent but it is built around symptom management: amitriptyline, gabapentin, pelvic floor physiotherapy, sometimes a referral to a psychologist for pain coping. Pudendal nerve entrapment is rarely on the list of things actively excluded.

Our Nordic branch exists to close that gap without asking anyone to abandon their Swedish care. We review the imaging already taken in Sweden, say whether the nerve is plausibly involved, and put that in writing so the treating physician in Sweden can act on it.

Consultations for Swedish patients are held in Swedish or English, and follow-up after any surgery is conducted by video from home, with the operative report shared with the local clinic.

Vår nordiska filial tar emot journaler och bilder från svensk vård och svarar skriftligt på svenska eller engelska.
