Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation in Chronic Constipation Associated with Dyspareunia: A Case Report.
Introduction: Chronic constipation is a common gastrointestinal disorder that often presents with significant discomfort and can negatively impact the quality of life. In some cases, it is associated with dyspareunia (painful intercourse). Pelvic floor dysfunction is a key contributing factor to both chronic constipation and dyspareunia.
Case: This case report explores the role of pelvic floor rehabilitation in managing chronic constipation with concomitant dyspareunia in a 33-year-old female patient. The patient presented with long-standing constipation, along with vaginal pain during intercourse, which had led to significant emotional and physical impairment. A comprehensive pelvic floor rehabilitation program, including pelvic muscle exercises, biofeedback, and manual therapy, was implemented. The outcomes demonstrated improvement in both constipation symptoms and dyspareunia, highlighting the effectiveness of targeted pelvic floor therapy.
Conclusion: This case suggests the potential of pelvic floor rehabilitation as a non-invasive, integrated treatment approach for individuals experiencing chronic constipation and dyspareunia, particularly when pelvic floor dysfunction is identified as a contributing factor.
Keywords: Constipation, dyspareunia, pelvic floor, biofeedback, case report.
期刊介绍:
Launched in 1995, Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine has a mission to promote the art and science of integrative medicine and a responsibility to improve public health. We strive to maintain the highest standards of ethical medical journalism independent of special interests that is timely, accurate, and a pleasure to read. We publish original, peer-reviewed scientific articles that provide health care providers with continuing education to promote health, prevent illness, and treat disease. Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine was the first journal in this field to be indexed in the National Library of Medicine. In 2006, 2007, and 2008, ATHM had the highest impact factor ranking of any independently published peer-reviewed CAM journal in the United States—meaning that its research articles were cited more frequently than any other journal’s in the field.
Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine does not endorse any particular system or method but promotes the evaluation and appropriate use of all effective therapeutic approaches. Each issue contains a variety of disciplined inquiry methods, from case reports to original scientific research to systematic reviews. The editors encourage the integration of evidence-based emerging therapies with conventional medical practices by licensed health care providers in a way that promotes a comprehensive approach to health care that is focused on wellness, prevention, and healing. Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine hopes to inform all licensed health care practitioners about developments in fields other than their own and to foster an ongoing debate about the scientific, clinical, historical, legal, political, and cultural issues that affect all of health care.
