Dissertation note: Thesis (M.Sc.) - Cairo University - Faculty of Physical Therapy - Department of Physical Therapy for Surgery Summary: Background: Pudendal neuralgia is a rare problem with the pudendal nerve that can affect both men and women. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate and compare the effect of laser puncture and microcurrent electrical stimulation on pain level and norgesic intake in patients with postoperative pudendal neuralgia. Subjects and methods: Thirty male patients who had persistent intractable perineal pain due to post operative pudendal neuralgia were participated in the study. This study was conducted in outpatient clinic of Central Warrq Hospital. Subjects aged from 32 to 45 years were randomly divided into two equal groups: group (A): composed of 15 patients who received laser puncture in addition to the traditional physical therapy and medical care while group (B): composed of 15 patients who received microcurrent electrical stimulation in addition to the traditional physical therapy and medical care.. Visual analogue scale and norgesic medicament intake were assessed before starting treatment (first record) then after 6 weeks (as second record) then after 12 weeks (as third final record), laser and microcurrent were used for 9 min\day for 3 days per week for 12 week. Comparison between the mean values of different variables pre and post treatment is performed using paired student t test, comparison between the mean values of the different variables as regards post treatment in the two groups is performed using unpaired student t test, SPSS computer program (version 17) was used for data analysis. Results: The results showed significant improvement in both groups but not between groups. Conclusion: Both Laser puncture and microcurrent electrical stimulation have a significant effect on pain level and norgesic intake in patients with post operative pudendal neuralgia and there are no significant differences between laser puncture and microcurrent electrical stimulation on pain level and norgesic intake in patients with post operative pudendal neuralgia
