Abstract
Musculoskeletal pain is certainly underestimated in the management of chronic pelvic and perineal pain. The pathophysiology of musculoskeletal pain involves disorders of the lumbar, pelvic and femoral equilibrium, myofascial pain characterized by the presence of trigger points for which the pathophysiology remains controversial: a purely muscle disease, reaction to adjacent inflammatory reactions causing hypersensitization, or simply a sign of central hypersensitization in a context of chronic pain syndrome.
