lino Posted November 10, 2009 (edited) I stepped in a hole this weekend. After I got up it felt like my pelvic floor was going to fall out I've had the same sensation when I tried to lift too much weight doing barbell squats  Strange considering that I'm a guy  Anybody has any comments that might help?

alexandrov Posted November 10, 2009 I stepped in a hole this weekend. After I got up it felt like my pelvic floorwas going to fall out  i dont understand what you mean by this, could you please explain what happened here in another way? Especially the stepped in a hole part, did you physically have a hard fall? Did you hit your perineum? Also what do you mean by fall out, please describe the sensation more, and under which circumstances it reappears.  to me the barbell squat part could possibly indicate the beginnings of a hernia especially since you mentioned too much weight.  thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeform Posted November 10, 2009 yup sounds like a hernia, get checked out by a doc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trunk Posted November 10, 2009 I stepped in a hole this weekend. After I got up it felt like my pelvic floor was going to fall out I've had the same sensation when I tried to lift too much weight doing barbell squats  The above caught my curiosity so I talked privately to a studious friend who said (and gave me permission to post anonymously), The guy probably pulled his adductors. The adductors in turn pulled fascially on the pelvic floor and distorted it. He had similar sensations when lifting too much weight. That's due too much intra-abdominal pressure pushing against the pelvic floor from above. This accident is a sudden yank from below. Fix:  1) Acupressure on Bai Hui (Du-20) and Cheng Shan (UB-57) : Reflex points for the pelvic floor/anus 2) Massage along the inner thighs Kid/Liv channel to loosen up/heal injured tendons  Hope this helps.
