Consider a form that offers "pelvic pain treatment" and says little else. The phrase is broad, and the paperwork may leave the nerve unnamed. Wording like that is easier to judge once you know what the Cleveland Clinic states about the nerve.
Whether the label pudendal neuralgia applies to you is a question for your clinician. For general background on long-lasting pain, a chronic pain overview lists the common terms.
What the nerve is and what a block is said to do
The Cleveland Clinic states that the pudendal nerve is a major nerve in your pelvic region. It also states that a pudendal nerve block can help relieve genital, tailbone (coccyx) and rectal pain (pudendal neuralgia). Both are descriptions, and neither is a promise that a block will help you.
Naming the nerve and the area on a form
A form that says "pelvic pain" has not named a nerve. A form that names the pudendal nerve is more specific, and it should also say which area the procedure covers. Compare the two on your paperwork. If a block is proposed, an overview of nerve blocks explains how the procedure is named and described.
Other approaches listed beside an injection
Some forms list other approaches next to an injection and leave out how they compare. If yours does, ask what the plan assumes about each approach. A page on chronic pain and complementary health approaches discusses their usefulness and safety, which gives you questions to ask. Ask also what happens to the plan if the first step does not change your symptoms.
Putting the nerve, area and procedure on one page
Ask for the nerve, the area and the procedure to be named together on one page. Then ask the office to write down what the clinic means by relief and how it will be judged. If the cause of the pain is described only in general terms, a list of common causes of chronic pain helps you read that wording critically. Do not sign until the three items match across the pages you were given.
