I'm 37 and have been dealing with the total random nature of these sharp stabbing parlaying pains in the perineum area for a couple of years now. Didn't realize there's a world of other guys out there going thru this very same experience. I've brought this up to my gp the last few times and he just looks at me crooked. Sends me to the urologist who basically didn't have an explanation. These incredibly painful episodes Still kept occurring so gp has me get an MRI. Nothing. Back to urologist. Gives me cipro says it could be from an inflamed gland near the prostate. Meds seemed to work for a few weeks but tonight the pain came back with a vengeance. Came across this forum and found all of you. So now i think this could be stress related since I've been dealing with some crazy work related stuff. I drink coffee each day and enjoy my cocktails too. Whatever the pain is, the best I can describe it as being a spasm just under and inside the base of my scrotum area. But these are intense when they happen and stand me right up on my toes. Probably need to find a way to relax and lay off the coffee....
I've had this like needles in the scrotum had to use ice to stop the pain was put on 800mg Ibpro 3 times a day after 6 mts it helped and was told it had something to do with the s1 in the spine and if I wanted they would clean up around the nerves in this area. After 8 years I need to have the lower back fused so I told them to fix this problem while they are in there.
My boyfried told me he had this stabbing sensation from time to time (inbetween the penis and the anus), he said at times it could hurt so much! he had to stop doing what he was doing... He said he had this pain for a couple of years (around 2), before we had sex he was testing for STD's (urinie & blood) and he had Chlamydia, so far 2 years later he no longer had the stabbing sensations.
Wow... Reading through all of the prior posts I would say there are clearly two different issues here, one, people who are experiencing constant pain in the "gooch" area due to a possible hernia and those experiencing cramping in the gooch intermittently.
I have been getting this since I was around 12, now I am 30. Fit and healthy young bloke and generally get it 5-6 times a year I guess and totally out of the blue. When I was younger it would only happen after jumping over a fence or off a wall, feeling like the biggest kick to your balls in the world. I often wondered about it and thought if it gets worse I will go see a doc. I have had in twice in the last month and once was from jumping and one whilst sitting on the toilet after finishing urinating prior to taking a dump.
It seems there are many others who share my issue, and I find it strange that there isn't a common diagnosis for this. I will just continue to live with it, doesn't seem to affect me in any other way.
Ill keep an eye on this site to see others stories.
Cheers
also i suggest you all learning how to breath with you diaphragm because belly breathing will reduce your stress and give you better flow incase you are wondering every person at some point in there life will forget how to breath via chest breathing opposed to regular breathing this problem you are all having is related to anxiety which can be heightened by lack of oxygen of blood flow and causes you to breath with your chest and this can become permanent also note smoking will make someone a chest breather over time stress will likely make you clog up your prostate just some friendly advice if you follow the previous steps i mentioned in the previous message and this one i can assure you the issue will be resolved within 3 days at the least and 3 weeks at the most but youll need to do a prostate massage once a day before sleep and MAKE SURE YOU PEE AFTER this is vitally important because the stagnant semen stored in there will now be in your shaft and it will need that vitamin C enriched pee to clear it i stress again what i just explained is not gay and its natural to need to do this its a natural way to clear out your prostate
this will sound crazy im not gay im a straight male age 21 and i have the cure for your issues this will sound nutts so have an open mind but what you are experiencing is a blockage in your prostate this can turn to cancer to get rid of it i suggest a prostate massager and a gf that loves you dearly or a hand and basically you need to massage your prostate to make yourself discharge the toxins in the tube that are blocking it up and the reason i suggest masturbation and or a partner is if your straight to keep your mind of the prostate stimulation which can be awkward then you need to raise your vitamin C levels you intake daily to 300% and this problem will fade entirely i assure you as to the fact i saw it on a natural health site and i had the same problem and cured myself with the method mind you i do not have the link anymore the site was closed but please heed the advice it could save your life because this type of infection can cause cancer if untreated for a long time PS my grammer ***** and my spelling so please read and dont be pregidous
