Is your pelvic floor behind your symptoms?

Pain, pressure, leaking, or discomfort — these are signals your body is sending that something needs attention. Susan has helped hundreds of patients in Boca Raton get to the root cause and heal for good.

Most men experiencing penile pain have already seen multiple doctors, undergone tests, and been told “everything looks normal.” Yet the pain—burning, sensitivity, or discomfort in the tip or shaft—persists.

That’s because penile pain often isn’t just a “urology issue.” It can be a sign of pelvic floor dysfunction.

In our latest video, Susan Winograd PT, owner of Pelvicore Rehab & Wellness and pelvic floor physical therapist, explains how tight or overactive pelvic floor muscles can cause referred pain, nerve irritation, and discomfort during erections or ejaculation—issues that are more common than most realize.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

  1. The overlooked link between penile pain and the pelvic floor
  2. How anatomy (the pelvic floor “hammock”) plays a role in sexual health
  3. Why nerve irritation can trigger pain during intimacy
  4. Why you’re not alone—and why this issue is far more common than people think
  5. How pelvic floor physical therapy can relieve pain and restore function

This video is for anyone experiencing penile pain—or clinicians who want to better understand the pelvic floor connection.
