How Physiatrists Treat Refractory Pelvic Pain

As an otolaryngologist, if I had a patient who mentioned pelvic pain, I'd send them to an OB-GYN, or urologist.  I'd never think to send them to a physiatrist, a specialist in physical medicine and rehabilitation.  This is why Dr. Tayyaba Ahmed is on the show today.  She treats the muscoloskeletal causes of pelvic pain and patients that she often sees have been refractory to multiple other treatments.  Dr. Ahmed is a fellow of the Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and a member of the International Pelvic Pain Society and she is my first interviewee to date the use the phrase "kicked in the balls."   She can be found at https://www.facebook.com/pelvicpainspecialistcommunity http://www.instagram.com/drtayahmed http://www.pelvicrehabilitation.com   This medical podcast is your physician mentor to fill the gaps in your medical education.
