Give me all your tips and tricks

As title states I want all your tips and tricks, specifically for hypertonic pelvic floor causing severe dyssynergic defecation and other issues. They can either ones you may have learned from your PT or maybe tricks you found to work for you that you weren’t ever recommended.

I have gone to pelvic floor PT, but unfortunately haven’t found a good one that focuses specifically on helping make sure I relax my pelvic floor when using restroom/focus on biofeedback. I also do already use a potty squatty and try breathing techniques to relax while going. But here are issues I’m still battling to feel a difference:

  1. Feel like my low back pain and tight hips make things worse, and them and my pelvic floor are constantly in a battle
  2. Did focusing solely on diaphragm breathing help the most, stretching, or pelvic floor core strengthening exercise

/ maybe some hip and glute ones too,

  1. help you the most; or should I do a combo of all

?

Severe low back pain and numbness

Does anyone else have this. I have severe low back pain all the time even when I haven’t done anything. When I go poop it’s like the back pain gets even worse, which I try to relax my pelvic floor and it seems to drop down but everything just feels super tight (have constant incomplete evacuation when I try all the “tips” to relax) and then after I feel numb in my low back and pelvic floor. Same things happens when I have sex, during and after my back pain seems to cause numbness in low back and pelvic floor..

I’ve already seen specialist, done pt, do all the things everyone recommends and still not getting relief I actually feel I’m getting worse and worse, I’m getting very depressed and starting to feel suicidal because of all this.
