How old were you when you went through all of this..?? Supposably men over 50 do not get chronic pelvic pain syndrome... The reason I asked the last 5 months I have gone through major anxiety and panic disorder. It has affected my mental health and physical health quite significantly. Most recently now I was diagnosed with possible prostatitis. However I am 50 years old. I did have or was diagnosed with prostatitis approximately 8 to 9 years ago.. after a few months it eventually went away on its own. Been suffering again for the last 2 months... Still going to urologist for more testing...

LOL, until recently I hadn't realized that Mario updated his favorite way to tackle ED and it's a relief! Although what he previously suggested was pretty good, it was a real pain to follow... I just go'ogled the latest by Mario Volpstein, it's so much simpler and potent now!

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for doing this.

thank you very much for doing this. you give us HOPE!

Karl do you work with U.S. or Canada based patients?

How is he doing now? Fully recovered?

Great stuff

From Finland! Can I get help?

I've been dealing with this pain since 2017, come and go, then come again. All the test came put negative, i even tried the shockwave therapy, 6 times per session. It did work, and the pain gone, but after 4 later, the pain sensation feeling come back to me now..until now. ( Just right after i ejaculated).....😢

Did limited Ejaculation play a role in recovery? Masturbation or sex?

What are the stretches?

Man. I have similarities. Mine started at 19 years old. I’m now 47. I had Vericocele surgery at 21 years old. The pain has been constant ever since. Opiates about killer me. One road I would like to try are the stretching exercises.

Karl - is there a way of contacting you, I'm having issues and I'd like a consultation to see if you can help me.

You have done an incredible job with this video. So much valuable info regarding this relatively unknown syndrome that causes such a drastic drop in quality of life..

Karl, time you wrote a definitive book on CPPS to complement Alan Gordon's more generic THE WAY OUT. What's missing in Alan's otherwise marvelous book are the tools specific/peculiar to the management of this condition, especially the biological/physical component of the 'biopsychosocial' model experts like yourself propose. Susie Gronski's book is one fine attempt to incorporate all aspects of this holistic approach but as a practising doctor suffering from CPPS I would love to hear -- in print -- your unique voice. Waiting for a response. Thanks and warm regards. P.S. Is there any place in your protocol for modalities like Transcutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation or drugs like Amitryptiline/Nortryptiline in the short term to ease the pain if it's bad enough to ruin one's sleep and push back recovery?

Brilliant interview. Phil is such an articulate guy!

Hi all! Mustafa here. I realised that the pain relief audio link has stopped working. Please find it reuploaded here: drive.google.com/file/d/1jmp1_tG0u_XcmCI79ni0ex2aWgy5_2xi/view?usp=share_link

Pardon me Robbie for being blunt, but sitting in the UK it's fine for you to say 'don't do it alone'. As a sixty year old practising physician and CPPS sufferer fighting a lone battle in India, I have no other option. Thanks to the incredible efforts of commited counselors like Karl and Susie Gronski, I see a glimmer of light at the end of this dark tunnel. Thanks a bunch anyway.

Walling yourself off from people who are a source of unwelcome drama, thereby increasing your general anxiety level -- the kind of people who can be labelled mildly 'toxic' in current lingo -- is a crucial component of the recovery process IMHO.

Two nuggets of wisdom: "You are not your pain" and "What matters is your mind's response to your pain". The second one is harder to grasp and act on. The limbic brain is on autopilot and as stubborn as a mule.

Immensely helpful

What book was it?

What would you say to someone like me -- a sixty year old doctor from India suffering from CPPS for the last seven months -- who has no support group or team of therapists familiar with the Sarno-Schubiner approach in his country to rely on? I am not a 'lone wolf' by choice.

hard flaccid, erectile dysfunction, loss of ejaculation, libido, urination problems etc. Were those who read these comments and give their opinion lumbar sacral X-rays made here to see the lordosis? The sacral angle? the sagittal balance? the pelvic angle? If they have any imbalance in the spine or herniated disc, the sacral angle changes, a hyperlordosis occurs, the muscles of the coccyx to the pubis pull back and block the seminal duct and arteries, they also stretch the pudendal nerve, their lumbar muscles contract, the pelvis changes position and there is a contracture of the iliopsoas muscle that squeezes the pelvic musculature

I had been suffering from a condition called Hard Flaccid for over a month. I believe it was caused by using a tight condom during intercourse that lasted for 45 minutes to an hour. Additionally, the frequency of having sex every day for the past 7 months since my marriage, sometimes up to 4 times a day, could have contributed to it. It is also possible that nutritional deficiencies due to excessive sexual activity played a role. One night, after using a condom during sex, I felt a slight numbness in my penis, as if I had lost sensation in a limb. The next morning, my flaccid penis was significantly smaller than usual, and I experienced erectile dysfunction every day since then. I consulted a doctor who suggested taking multivitamins containing zinc, magnesium, Vitamin D, and melatonin for sleep. I diligently took these supplements for a month. Initially, I couldn't feel anything in my penis, but as days went by, I started experiencing numbness and a cold sensation. My scrotum also felt drained and shrunken. I noticed that my flaccid penis became less sensitive and hard to touch, with no sensation when pinched. It was during this time that I learned about Hard Flaccid Syndrome. Surprisingly, I felt some relaxation in my penis when urinating, possibly due to the warmth of the urine, which gave me hope. Occasionally, I would feel anxious, but the melatonin tablets helped me improve my sleep. I also experienced symptoms like constipation and loss of sensation in my lower abdomen. I sought the advice of a urologist who found no physical issues and suggested that it might be psychological. However, I knew for certain that it was not solely a mental problem, even though I was going through a challenging period in my life. I tried watching videos on pelvic muscle relaxation and practiced it for a few days, which helped me relax my penis temporarily, but it would return to a hard flaccid state when touched. Later, I read somewhere that aerobic exercise could alleviate the problem. I started jogging for a few days and immediately noticed a change in my body. I wish I had known about this earlier during my suffering because cardio exercise significantly helped me regain my erections. After about a week of jogging, I regained sensation and my sex life returned to normal. I even noticed an increase in both girth and length of my penis after recovering from the condition. It was a rewarding outcome after a month-long struggle. Gradually, I resumed sexual activity, approaching it as one would approach any new sport. From my understanding of this syndrome, our bodies have a remarkable ability to heal themselves, and the condition was our body's way of recovering and strengthening after an injury. It suppresses sexual urges for an extended period to allow for a full and robust recovery. Therefore, my advice to anyone facing this problem is to be patient with your body, engage in cardio exercises, eat nutritious food, and take your vitamins. You will witness a complete recovery. Thank you, cardio!

Audio is VERY LOW smh

So relatable

Hello, thanks for the video. I have been suffered with hard flaccid and erectile dysfunction for 7 years. Can these muscles (glutes, hamstrings, lower back, abdominal and hips) caused hard flaccid and erectile dysfunction?? If I stretches these muscles, will it get rid of the hard flaccid and will my erections return to normal??

Thanks very helpful !!!

Thanks for the information!!👍

My penis is always flaccid and feels like a lifeless hard cord, haven’t had an erection in 4 days. I will get very aroused but my genitals don’t respond at all as if the blood flow is blocked and they feel hollow and very flaccid. I’m praying so much and am getting depressed more and more every day. A part of me is gone and I don’t want to live like this.

How can i take to you doctor?

Thank you for taking the time to put out these videos… I’m struggling but I’m going to be ok

Thank you so much for your share… I have struggled with this for a few years and it’s turned my life upside down .. I never quit but I do get so scared and down on myself… listening to this has giving me another push to get up and keep going … no one understands how bad this condition is for a person to go through… I talked to you about a year and a half ago on Skype or zoom … I’m Josh from San Diego… I Wil keep pushing

Jamie is very articulate. Thank you for sharing your experience.

I am very anxious t I don't know what to do. I have only mother plz plz help

"Hey bro, do you wanna recover from your chronic pelvic pain?" Uhh... yeah, sure. What are you suggesting? "Great. All you have to do is try this super sweet drug which is similar to LSD and DMT." Uhm... how exactly is that gonna cure me? "Listen bro, if you use a drug which acts a painkiller then you won't feel the pain, so your chronic pelvic pain is gone." What on Earth does that even do to fix my pelvic floor problem? "..." Better yet, won't the painkiller effect, assuming that even works, won't that immediately return once the drug wears off? "Nah man, just trust me on this. Do this, and you'll be right as rain." Uhm yeah, how about piss off?

Robbie's comments @ 7:30 mins mark are well worth and listening and to someone who is going through this now it's inspiring.

Mastrubated excessively with sex toy called fleshlight for 2 months and sometimes 5 times a day. Also used to stop myself from ejaculation by doing kegels all time during mastrubation. I don't know whether I have hard flaccid or not, but I have some symptoms which he explained in the slide.
