Hello everyone!

i was diagnose with levator ani syndrome, and my doctor recommends me for trigger point release therapy today. Have anyone tried this before? Will it hurts when they are in the process of doing this i'm wondering how will they be able to put a finger in when my anus is so tight and tense
Have anyone found relieve from this therapy? please enlighten me with your experience

Hi there. I have levator ani syndrome as well. I have tried it all, physio, trigger point injections and botox. Trigger point therapy can be painful and sometimes it will flare you up too. Just know that it can be a long and painful process but with the right therapist you can definitely get relief.

Are you a male?

Yes im a male :)
It sucks so badly. Yesterday was my first session with the therapist, my anal region was so tight and stiff while the therapist insert her finger up there. I would need to go back every week for 1 session with her. Just wondering how long have you went before started to see some relief of results?

It's so hard to say. Everyone is different. How did you feel afterwards?

after the first session, i felt very sore and tender on the spot that she message. i tried touching the spot while applying nitro glycerin into my rectum today. its still in constant state of tightness and tension. Is it normal for the spot to be tender and sore afterwards?

Yes, very normal. It may take weeks of this until you see some improvement. Hang in there :)

Thank you Msimon , hopefully it does. Are you still experiencing spasm after the trigger point therapy for your case ?

more just tightness (not spasm) and aching at times.
