title: Chronic Urogenital Pain in Men.
abstract: Current terminology uses the 2008 European Association of Urology guidelines, but variably used historical terms suggest inflammation or infection that is rarely found.Central sensitisation is important in causing visceral and muscle hyperalgesia throughout the pelvis.There can be considerable overlap between urogenital pain conditions.Men who have a chronic urological pain condition often have a disturbance of urinary, bowel and sexual function.Working with urologists as well as a multidisciplinary team is essential.
