Dr. Nick Fogelson, an expert excision specialist with formal neuropelviology training, explains how endometriosis affects nerve pathways and creates specific pain patterns. He shares valuable insights on identifying and treating nerve compression and endometriosis lesions that directly invade nerves.
• All endometriosis pain involves nerve irritation in some way
• Endometriosis can irritate nerves without directly invading them
• Lesions near the hypogastric nerve plexus can cause back pain, bladder and bowel dysfunction
• "Skip lesions" are isolated endometriosis deposits directly on nerves with minimal disease elsewhere
• Finding nerve-involved endometriosis requires specialized neuropelviology training
• Patient history and symptoms often provide clues to nerve involvement
• Some cases involve vascular compression alongside endometriosis
