The term perineal pain can be defined as a localized pain in the genitalia and the pelvic floor, which can be caused both by the perineal musculotendinous unit and organs in the pelvic.

The pain is typically felt in the perineal region with possible radiation to the inguinal, lumbar, genital, sacrococcygeal and suprapubic levels.
